I had never noticed fake coins on Amazon...just real coins at high retail prices. But today I got this suggestion from Amazon...

    The new collector that buys this may lose any interest in coins after learning his/her coin is worthless. That is the real damage done by counterfeits.

    Completely disagree on items like this. It is $3.99 on Amazon and ANY amount of quick research will reveal it is obviously counterfeit. I don't know who (if anyone) is buying this item but they do so knowing at the point of purchase it is not authentic.

    Such a glaring conflict between the words and the picture should alert even the new collectors...Cheers, RickO

    I didn't realize it was priced at $3.99. I thought they were trying to take advantage of someone.
