<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gxseries, post: 1962974, member: 4373&quot;]I make no apologies for this but we should all keep away from modern counterfeits. Reason being is, if we keep on buying such counterfeits, it does not help us in the long run. Counterfeiters have more reasons to invest money in producing higher quality counterfeits which makes it more difficult to diagosis unless you are a specialist. At present, some of easier ways of detecting counterfeits such as magnetic test, weight test and edge detection are already no longer good for higher quality counterfeits. </p><p><br /></p><p>Who knows what kind of metal was used in such coins. Silver alloy? I doubt it. Probably lead based and then plated silver? Likely but would you want to handle it? Only reason I would keep counterfeits is when I was deceived big time or it is a contempory counterfeit[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
