<p>[QUOTE=&quot;hinnelton, post: 533924, member: 14999&quot;]I have a bunch of my better condition halves in clear snap-together holders (I am sure there is a name for these!). What makes the Intercept holders better? More airtight? More sturdy? They are definitely much more expensive than the run of the mill plastic holders.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I was in a coin / secondhand shop a few weeks ago, and they had a few counterfeit trade dollars. The proprietor was weighing them to satistfy to me (and himself I think since I was interested, if they were real) that they were fakes. They were indeed. I was curious how much counterfeits are worth - thought maybe they were rare? - but it appears that there are counterfeits are everywhere. They even had chop marks on them. Maybe those were counterfeit, too?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I will post a pic of my trade dollar. The toning is superb! Rainbow. But I have a feeling that the color won&#039;t really come through in the photos. I probably still need to do some work on my coin photography...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>No concern that it&#039;s fake, but maybe I am wrong&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
