Interesting article and something I was unaware of. Thought it was worth a share. Sorry if it's already been linked someplace else on here.

    Thanks for the article.

    This is reminding about the war in drugs. Who do you go after? The dealer or the buyer?

    Glad to see the very end to the coin hobby finally being combatted by someone. Our government doesn't seem to care.

    This is a major issue in the hobby today. Although it is nice to see some effort being made to combat the problem, it is far too little and likely too late. This issue will have to be fought at the grass roots level by collectors and dealers... weeding out the fakes, education of collectors and shutting down sources. Cheers, RickO
