<p>[QUOTE=&quot;10gary22, post: 1277788, member: 23626&quot;]I would like to see the coin in hand, but it sure looks like a counterfeit to me. The strike doesn&#039;t look right at all. At least it sure doesn&#039;t look like any of the 72 cents I have.</p><p><br /></p><p>Who knows, perhaps the Shanghai mint scored a batch of cheap copper and had the dies already made ? Remember, it is NOT illegal to reproduce US coins in China. It is only illegal to pass them as genuine here in the US. And they ship small packages for free or very little cost, as I have had items shipped from China with postage of free or 5c HK. There is a possibility of profit from minting and selling these coins, so they would surely do that. IMHO</p><p><br /></p><p>gary[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
