<p>[QUOTE=&quot;john59, post: 2161943, member: 73760&quot;]I agree with you that the Chinese fakes are at epidemic proportions. At least with the silver dollars seasoned collectors and novices have a little bit of a chance. I think the Chinese fakes are on the lips of every seasoned hobbyist. As for the novice collector they get some of it through the media. Not enough info but some. The big problem is faking the common dates of 1 cent to 50 cent and the art of it is being perfected every day. If we&#039;re flooded with those types of fakes I see that to be a tremendous problem. You have tons of the bullion collectors/hoarders and roll collectors putting these common dates away. Any help to identify them would be the first business of the coin forums. Not to hold back information that could help identifying these counterfeits. I wouldn&#039;t worry so much about the Chinese &quot;eavesdropping&quot; on these threads. They get enough feedback on their fakes, that is why they&#039;re perfecting them day-by-day.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
