<p>[QUOTE=&quot;asciibaron, post: 353134, member: 8566&quot;]which China are you talking about - the Republic of China or the People&#039;s republic of China - neither of them is communist - the ROC is a multi-party representative democracy and the PROC is a one party state under the control of the Communist party.&nbsp; the Communist party has distanced it&#039;s self from Marxism/Leninism starting in the early 1980&#039;s which was Socialist.&nbsp; there has never existed a communist state in all of the world, never mind one that is making counterfeit coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>China and the USSR made counterfeit US currency during WWII.&nbsp; in the USSR, counterfeit US dollars were worth more than rubbles! the US made counterfeit Germany currency during WWII.&nbsp; that has nothing to do with the current collector&#039;s coins being counterfeited - that money was made to bring market instability during wartime.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>the only state i am aware of that sponsored counterfeiting collectible coins is Libya - maybe - it still hasn&#039;t been proven that the state funded the dies.</p><p><br /></p><p>the DPRK has been linked to making counterfeit US bills - the Super Bills - the jury is still out on that as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>common criminals are at work, not state sponsored hijacking of currency - the Chinese state has nothing to gain from flooding the market with knock off Offset Bust halfs.</p><p><br /></p><p>-Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
