<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Blissskr, post: 2965409, member: 34882&quot;]And once again the FTC way back in Gold Bullion Intl which was again restated as being the precedent case in determining the rules/regulations pertaining to copy marks when the H.P.A was updated. Had ruled that there is no requirement that knowledge or intent to deceive be shown in order to prove a violation of the hobby protection act. They also reiterate at the end of the opinion after all the suggestions that the coins must be marked already as set by the Gold Bullion case precedent.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]726670[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>And reading the exact wording in the updated H.P.A. which is excerpted below, I really can&#039;t see what position you or anyone else is using to argue that somehow your over strikes are exempt. Well except for the repeat claim that they are just an altered original numismatic item. Despite the fact they&#039;ve been over struck and are no longer an original numismatic item, have lost legal tender status and thus no longer represent a government issued coin able to legally be passed in commerce.</p><p><br /></p><p>&#039;Notably, the Commission has addressed whether coins resembling</p><p>government-issued coins with date variations are subject to the Rules.</p><p>In re Gold Bullion Int’l, Ltd., 92 F.T.C. 196(1978). It concluded that such coins should be marked as a ‘‘COPY’’ because otherwise they could be mistaken for an original numismatic item. 22&#039;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
