Would you consider moving to China if you were offered $1 million a year to serve as a numismatic consultant to a Chinese coin factory?

    $1 million in fake trade dollars! image

    Do they really need consultants? I'd imagine they can do most of it from photos and real coins.

    Why certainly!

    My salary over there would go a lot farther, I'm sure.

    Yes! OF COURSE! And I'd make sure each coin minted had my intitials on it showing
    I approve! Better than a CAC sticker!

    Certainly.... not even a moment's hesitation. I have lived in several foreign countries, and China would be an incredible experience. Cheers, RickO

    well......depends on the legitimacy of the mint and whether you had to use those gross squat toilets...

    No, they would probably pay you with thier own product.

    Don't get me wrong I would love to go back to China and I have been doing everything I can to get reassigned to WDD Macau; but that is for Casino design and construction and I would have nothing to do with producing, endorsing or distributing fake US coinage.

    Hell no, I'm 6'5" and was there in the '80's and didn't like the accomodations as most were too small. Pretty sure that several million more ppl hasn't changed that at all.
