Respect to twokopekei, didn't see the thread on the lightside and I know many don't make it over to the darkside often.

The Copyright Term Extension Act of 1998—alternatively known as the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act or pejoratively as the Mickey Mouse Protection Act—extended copyright terms in the United States by 20 years. Before the Act (under the Copyright Act of 1976), copyright would last for the life of the author plus 50 years, or 75 years for a work of corporate authorship;
from wikipedia.
so basically, are they really stealing or just following the laws before
they were changed ???
anyway, i like how china operates. wild west. reminds me of the USA
in its early days.
Why step over the dollar to get to the cent? Because it's a 55DDO.
a 150 years for an example of how the US used to be just like
china... well we were.
The principle of linking copyright and lifespan was further extended to an author's lifetime plus fifty years in 1911. Reciprocal copyright treaties with other nations were authorized by statute in 1838 and 1844. The most important of these early reciprocal accords was that between Britain and Prussia in 1846, which eventually led to The Berne Convention of 1886. However, American publishers continued to regard the work of a foreign (i. e., non-resident) author as unprotected 'common' property. Thus, although the Berne Convention greatly simplified the copyright process among European nations, numerous unauthorized American re-prints continued to appear until 1891, when the United States finally agreed to discontinue sanctioning literary piracy.

so my point is, i am unsure. pot kettle black or something.
let ANACS fight the battle. i guess i will have to research a bit more
before buying. buyer should always beware.

Sadly, that will NEVER happen.
<< <i>It's about time the US put some pressure on China concerning copyright infringement. They are copying everything, movie DVD's, software, CD's, Roseville pottery, lots of Microsoft software, and countless other items. They have DVD's on the street before they are released from what I've heard. It seems to be a country full of crooks. I'm getting sick of it myself. >>
Won't do any good, this has been happening for many years and China does not take it seriously. The few companies that have
tried suing have gotten nowhere with the Chinese legal system.
It's not so much the fake slabs, but that the coins within will be fake also.

The US has pressured China for some things but probably nothing as important as coins.

Most of these likely fakes are in the old small holders.
Anacs still uses the old small holders for all problem coins. Maybe that's why these are all noted with problems.
