<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clawcoins, post: 3911368, member: 77814&quot;]In the last couple of months there&#039;s been an influx of articles of &quot;gold bars getting into world markets&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>But this is *nothing* new.</p><p>Other than the fake AGEs, etc and what brought it to &quot;light&quot; was that in 2017 JP Morgan Chase found fake gold bars in their inventory.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a good article covering more in detail about that problem ==&gt; <a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-08-28/global-gold-industry-hit-forgery-crisis-fake-kilobars-flood-physical-market" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-08-28/global-gold-industry-hit-forgery-crisis-fake-kilobars-flood-physical-market" rel="nofollow">https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-08-28/global-gold-industry-hit-forgery-crisis-fake-kilobars-flood-physical-market</a></p><p><br /></p><p>==&gt; <a href="https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3774288" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3774288" rel="nofollow">https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3774288</a></p><p><br /></p><p>here&#039;s an article going back to 2016 of gold bars, the Pamp swiss ones, I recall the apmex fakes, etc etc.</p><p>==&gt; <a href="https://coinweek.com/bullion-report/counterfeit-gold-silver-beware-fake-pamp-suisse-gold-bars/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://coinweek.com/bullion-report/counterfeit-gold-silver-beware-fake-pamp-suisse-gold-bars/" rel="nofollow">https://coinweek.com/bullion-report/counterfeit-gold-silver-beware-fake-pamp-suisse-gold-bars/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a 2016 article about fake AGEs ==&gt; <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/glitters-not-gold-fake-gold-silver-coins-flooding-market-n591201" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/glitters-not-gold-fake-gold-silver-coins-flooding-market-n591201" rel="nofollow">https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/glitters-not-gold-fake-gold-silver-coins-flooding-market-n591201</a></p><p><br /></p><p>another 2018 article ==&gt; <a href="https://coinweek.com/counterfeits/avoid-becoming-victim-fake-gold-coin/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://coinweek.com/counterfeits/avoid-becoming-victim-fake-gold-coin/" rel="nofollow">https://coinweek.com/counterfeits/avoid-becoming-victim-fake-gold-coin/</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>on aliexpress, right now, you can get 5 pieces of 1 oz bar of Credit Swiss for $13.64.</p><p><br /></p><p>So just keep in mind this is nothing new.&nbsp; You have to protect yourself and on way of doing that is to buy from only High Qualified Dealers.</p><p><br /></p><p>For instance there&#039;s a local dealer around here who buys and sells gold.&nbsp; I&#039;d never buy from them.&nbsp; But then there&#039;s another high end dealer who I would buy from.</p><p><br /></p><p>But you have to d your own research. For instance, in the videos above from Colby J you can easily make out the differences.&nbsp; But, keep in mind that is ONE EXAMPLE and not all counterfeits are that distinguishable.</p><p><br /></p><p>So you have to check with who you want to buy from to see how they authenticate it. Of course, buying NEW AGEs always has an advantage.&nbsp; I used to buy &quot;any year&quot; gold, now I&#039;ve just opted to buy the new year AGEs .. that is when I consider the price at a good level.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
