<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gxseries, post: 2173478, member: 4373&quot;]Counterfeits from Japan and Korea are getting quite good. Here are sellers that sell very similar products. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/ander.dye/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_from&amp;_ipg=25&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2046732.m1684" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/ander.dye/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_from&amp;_ipg=25&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2046732.m1684" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/sch/ander.dye/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_from&amp;_ipg=25&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2046732.m1684</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/barba.dicks/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_from&amp;_ipg=25&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2046732.m1684" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/barba.dicks/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_from&amp;_ipg=25&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2046732.m1684" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/sch/barba.dicks/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_from&amp;_ipg=25&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2046732.m1684</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/zul8822/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_from&amp;_ipg=25&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2046732.m1684" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/zul8822/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_from&amp;_ipg=25&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2046732.m1684" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/sch/zul8822/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_from&amp;_ipg=25&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2046732.m1684</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Let&#039;s be realistic - these coins are often sold for more than 1000+ dollars. A quick check at Heritage reveals that a Japanese trade dollar is within the range of 1000 dollars and the Korean 5 yang is around 2500. In particular the Korean 1893 1 whan has been sold for nearly 20,000 dollars if you can even find one to start off with. Mintage number is at a very low 77 as the majority of these coins were melted down. Here&#039;s one example that was sold many years ago.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/world-coins-and-currency/piedmont-collection-korea-yi-hyong-silver-1-whan-year-502-/a/230-6901.s" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/world-coins-and-currency/piedmont-collection-korea-yi-hyong-silver-1-whan-year-502-/a/230-6901.s" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/itm/world-coins-and-currency/piedmont-collection-korea-yi-hyong-silver-1-whan-year-502-/a/230-6901.s</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Does 100 dollar sound like a bargain after knowing it&#039;s a counterfeit? I don&#039;t think so.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
