bagerap Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 And now sadly my little bubble has burst. China is now doing medals, well someone is. This one's laughable, but so were the Gothic Florins when they first appeared. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Victorian-medal-first-order-of-merit-1887-jubilee-bronze-medal-3-x-1-4/132717804593?hash=item1ee698fc31:g:CPYAAOSwZ~hbGOWN Quote

Paddy Posted August 7, 2018 Posted August 7, 2018 This one needs a long lesson in grading I think.

The 1932 posted by Paddy is nowhere near EF+ as described by the seller. more like GF/NVF. 1 Quote

It's not even a fake - it's a reproduction coin that doesn't even pretend to be a close approximation of the original. I note that "Guest's" link above now points to a similar 1909 halfcrown which IS properly described as a reproduction, though the description of "rare coin" is total BS. Quote
