An Assortment of Fake Coin Dies in China
Photo courtesy of Jinghua Shei
A selection of dies is shown for striking fake coins in an illegal Chinese coin minting operation. Note the many U.S. coins being faked.
In order to strike coins, you need coin dies, and the Chinese counterfeiters are making some fairly high-quality ones, as this photo indicates. Most of the dies shown here are of various American silver dollars, although I see a couple of Indian Head Cent dies and some foreign coin types.
