Rick, Check the thickness. That is a newer way that they are counterfeiting Chinese Pandas. The size and diameter are correct. The coin is thicker so weighs right. It's also much harder to detect a thicker coin in a picture...

This is true..I bought some "Replica Morgans for under 2.00 wih free shipping from China, just to see what quality they were, and i was very impressed/disgusted how close they are..I put my REAL Morgan on a scale...Then the Fake on the Scale..and they weighed exactly the same...then I checked Diameters....and they were dead on...But it was just a bit thicker...

I really dont understand how they can get away with this Shii...and the other day i see they are pumping out Fake Mercury Dimes!!....When is this gonna stop?

No time soon I'm afraid.

And get this they are also producing them inside of PCGS holders too, you won't be able to measure them.

Here is an email I got from a friend;

"Hey Rick,

Pardon my french, but do you want to see something really f****** scary? This is an email I got today:

"Dear friend

I have no idea how this person got my email address. It's scary how good some of these coins look, and how good the PCGS holders look. It's frightening to think about how many of these things are on ebay."
