Technically I don't think it is a counterfeit, since it has 'replica' stamped on the reverse. But it is no great stretch to imagine that this producer has a whole cabinet full of these that don't have the stamp. |

If they can make it in China then it will not be long before they will be selling it in Wal-Mart. And of course we all know how honest they are. As coin collectors we should go back to the very basic, that is not only know what you are buying but who you are buying from. |

I think I found a few of those in my room.  You guys are slipping.
But seriously, that is scary about that. I'd be cautious on future coins from the seller.

NEVER under any circumstances bid on anything if a vendor gives their location as being in either China or Indonesia!
FleaBay aren't serious about fighting fraud online.
You can always report it to www.coinaf.org & www.ic3.gov .

Frank,Commie China is a very corrupt country that is best known for all the rubbish quality goods that they dump into other countries.
Indonesia is another very corrupt country,as a lot of scams originate from there.It makes the Nigerian 419 scammers look like honest people.

Well, at least we have gotten them to mark their eBay garbage as replicas. |
