For new people generally Fake 2020 Silver Eagles from Wish

I mean if you are buying from Wish you should know better..... however they could and are probably in places like Ebay etc. Hard to "test" if you are buying online but for new people some visual coins...

I’ve been really concerned about a lot of the stuff on eBay. Some coins look bang on but others look miles off - even to me with no experience in coins. I’ve been careful on eBay for years, but even though buyer protection has got better, you first need to know you’ve been had over!

Im thinking I’ll stick to the mint and here until I’ve found my feet! And thanks for the video, very useful.

What would you say is the easiest method of testing for buyers?

In person with a PM tester is best (I believe). There is a seller (and I apologies I forget who it was) cant remember if it was here or Reddit but they sent a video of them testing the items before they sent them to me which was very nice. There are chemical tests but I would only use that for very large item (like a big bar).

Maybe someone else cna chime in Im only basing this on what Ive seen and read.

But just like anything someone could have a lot and 1 item out of a hundred could slip by. I would assume just building up a buying/selling reputation is best online.

True I guess in the video the weight, the magnet test and that app sound test are decent to quickly test..

 

Appreciate it
