virtually all of the US silver dollars, and foreign crown sized silver coins - such as french indochina piasters, and british trade dollars - offered by sellers based in china are fakes. in fact, the fake US dollars are counterfeit legal tender coins and illegal to posess in the US. these should be reported to ebay immediatly. the coins are easy to spot- all have the same dull gray surfaces, and ill proportioned lettering and dates. they will also be the wrong weight, and posess very little silver if any. they are generally struck in "pot metal." visit the ebay help page SELLING COINS for more information and to report violations to customer support.
