<p>[QUOTE="Gavin Richardson, post: 3155106, member: 83956"]This is a fascinating discussion. I wonder if the forged gold coin could be part of a bulk payment in a context in which it would not be expected to be individually weighed. Salting a gold lot with fakes could be a way of saving some money. But such bulk payments would be exceedingly rare, and this coin would be struck long after the days of paying off the Huns in wagons of gold. Plus, I think even then, the bulk gold was weighed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
