[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 56548, member: 669"]The "cleaned" description does say something about the seller's honesty, but still . . . US Trade Dollars, like the Japanese TDs I'm more familiar with, are among the most heavily counterfeited coins ever circulated. Counterfeits come in all stages of preservation, as they many of them were created to - and did - circulate as real, rather than to fool collectors. I would never buy one without a chance to carefully examine it in hand, and I suspect that I am somewhat better qualified to judge one from its picture than you are. BTW, welcome to the forum. :)[/QUOTE]
