Counterfeit US Coins Made in China Beth Deisher

Beth Deisher, editor of Coin World, has enlisted the aid of Susan Headley of the New York Times and Dr. Gregory Dubay, a serious collector, to help expose the flood of counterfeit United States coins that are being manufactured in China. These coins are being sold to unwary buyers all over the world.

In this presentation you will see and learn:

That the Chinese believe they are not breaking Chinese law
Why the quality of the coins is so good
How even the experts are being fooled
How to protect yourself buying coins on eBay
Diagnostics for PCGS counterfeit slabs
How you can tell a counterfeit using a magnet, magnifier caliper for measuring diameter and thickness and a scale using a kit assembled by Amos Press

Recorded at the 2009 FUN convention.
