OMG - The one time you wish a FB reel was AI slop, this is real life video.

At least they are only fake Chinese dollars though, shows how easy the Chinese can make fake coins though.

At least they are only fake Chinese dollars though, shows how easy the Chinese can make fake coins though.

Not only - I've seen similar videos - hundreds of Morgans made! Who knows what else.

Oh I know that, I was just happy this one only showed, dragon, Junk, and “Old man (Yuan Shikai)” dollars being made. I even have 2 fake US dollars 1795 and 1895S that a les educated friend gave which are some toxic Chinese fakes, its like they burned my hand - lead or tungwah tungsten and they are artifically aged like the ones in the video.

There are some older images from about 2012 floating around showing a factory full of boxes of fake coins, Chinese gold fortune coins, bars, scrolls and everything.

They have also produced fakes of some rarer modern Irish coins, the 1943 half crown being one example.

I've even seen Chinese fakes of what is originally official essai/prototype design coins that were originally issued by Poland,USSR and Vichy France without ever being released. 

They make fake coins of all sorts and not just exclusively chinese or american ones. When i started collecting i bought a silver ruble and turns out it was a chinese replica, it was underweight!! Got scammed out of 35 euros, but now i always check all coins for fakes

Yeah I have a similar story but with a Latvia 5 Lati instead (a UK seller that forgot to mention it was a replica). It's not all doom and gloom for me though as I enjoy some pieces that come out of China. This Polish 1995 Katyn coin for example. The original is well above my budget price wise but this modern replica is good enough for me with it being a copy in mind .
