    I wonder if the Chinese made this thing. Since we didn't have the equipment to give them for making concave - convex coins when we give them press to use back in the day, perhaps this is their contribution to the crooked cause. image

    It does appear that all his fakes (every listing) does originate in China....your guess is probably
    quite accurate, Bill.

    Under Item Specifics, it states..........




    << <i>• Coin is novelty for souvenir/collection purposes only. >>

    Then it should have word "COPY" marked on it.

    I hesitate to bring it up, but issue should be addressed. Since the real thing (a flat baseball commemorative coin) was never minted, then perhaps the "automobile mint" could make these things legally. image

    No, as it is an obvious attempt to deceive as it still says US, Dollar, etc.

    Don't the 1975 quarter and the 1964-D Peace Dollar that were made by the "automobile mint" say "United States of America" and either "Quarter Dollar" or "One Dollar" on them? I know that both of these items were struck over U.S. mint coins which is the excuse that makes them "legal," but what is to stop the Chinese from doing the same thing?

  • At least he is not claiming them to be real. These could be used in a vending machine at least unlike those silly bent coinsimage

    The REAL HOFs are a novelty for souvenir/collection purposes only. image
    Let's try not to get upset.
  • If you get 6 of the bent coins you can make a ball out of them, you can't do that with these flat ones.

    The auction description mentions the following company's name. Does this mean this company is the issuer?
