<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Good Cents, post: 3911722, member: 100720&quot;]Thank you all for your responses.</p><p><br /></p><p>Re the JPMorgan Chase counterfeit bars - that was about counterfeiting the source of the gold bars. The bars were 100% gold but it was illegal gold that was made to look identical to valid gold from houses like Pamp Suisse and with duplicate serial numbers. That was hundreds of millions of dollars of illegally gotten gold (stolen or mined illegally) that was deceptively moved into the gold market by way of counterfeiting. That is not what I&#039;m concerned about.</p><p><br /></p><p>To Clarify - I&#039;m not concerned where I buy it from as I will pay the premiums to buy current year coins from trusted dealers. My concern is down the line when I want to SELL it 10 years down the line, and how difficult authenticating it will be for the BUYER. I believe this will have a lot to do with which coins are harder to counterfeit in terms of their valid Gold Content.</p><p><br /></p><p>If the Chinese are making identical 99.99% gold counterfeit Buffalos then a bullion buyer will not care because his concern is the gold content. But if the counterfeits contain less than 1 oz of gold, then THAT is a problem.</p><p><br /></p><p>THIS is my concern, and I was wondering if anyone familiar with counterfeiting knows which coin is easier to counterfeit in terms of GOLD CONTENT.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
