    Has anyone bothered to keep a file with photos of the counterfeit coins and seller's ID that have been exposed here? Would make a great learning tool.
    If so, I would like to have a copy of them, as I plan on maintaining a copy hereforward(if a word).

    The reason I asked if anyone has copies is that I tried to go back and make them myelf, but the seller's name is lost as ebyay closed the auction and sometimes there were only an obverse photo. If not, I'll get them from hereon.

    I do of all the Single selling counterfeit coins that's being sold as genuine, but No, not in this case where the seller wasn't selling them as genuine, they were just distributing counterfeits in group lots. This is a China seller and they had SEVERAL group lots of different coins, Counterfeit Catalog style you might say :D

    I sent the seller a message and told them that if the coins themselves were not STAMPED "COPY" that they were considered counterfeited coins, I told them to keep them in China! and to properly dispose of them.

    Don’t tell them that

    I’ve seen “copy” photo edited on the coin

    About 15 years or so ago, I bought a 1796 16 star Draped Bust Half Dollar that was stamped "copy", just for fun and when I received it, it was not stamped "copy". It was so obviously a fake, I just kept it. So just because the seller shows it with copy on it, does not mean it is a legit auction. Also, it is becoming a fast growing option of listing all fakes without "copy" stamped on the coin as restrikes. I guess that must be legal technically, but not a great event in the collecting world. It will be scary one day for some poor heirs to a collector with a "valuable" collection to find it to be quite the collection of fakes.
