Fake US 90% coins?

Postby JobIII » Wed Dec 26, 2012 8:51 am

Has anyone heard anything about people producing fake circulated 90% silver coins? I'm not talking about the dollar coins here, just quarters, dimes and halfs. I haven't felt the need to run a magnet over the 90% but perhaps it's necessary.

Just curious.
Thanks,

if you find any, LUK

that's one good thing about worn Barbers, Mercs, and Walkers... who would bother to counterfeit them?
