not a surprising occurance
Wow and it looks like ya can buy all ya want to
It would be fun to buy a roll of them and then leave one in a Coinstar reject tray every time you pass one.

29 sold. Sad.
Like for April first 👎😈
Would also be interesting to know how many finders of it would know what they had found.
Wow... I wonder what the actual coin you would get looks like. The one in the picture looks to have a shallow N reverse and looks legit... and 29 have already been sold!

A lot of times they'll show a pic of a legitimate coin and the one they send the buyer looks nowhere as good.

Exactly. It would be funny if someone who found one posted it here wondering how much it was worth.

Just for fun I put the seller's name in Google Translate (with some spaces around and within the untranslated name, and without the final zero): "Zhou Bin was naked at that time."
Zhou Bin, per Wikipedia, "is a Chinese politician currently serving as Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary of Yancheng and First Secretary of the Yancheng Military Subdistrict Party Committee".
So Zhou Bins hobby must be casting fake coins nude?
Right. Part of the scam.

If these fakes keep selling they're just going to get better. A local shop guy bought a key date fake and liked it. I think any serious dealer should boycott them at least.
To bad one couldn't send the seller phony cash for the phony stuff. Wishful thinking....
Go to Ali Express. They cost 94 cents and look pretty good.
