This means you may request addition of your fakes to the gallery given the following basics:
It has to be YOUR coin (not a coin you spotted on another website);
It has to be a modern fake or forgery (you can prove it thanks to a detail of the coin and not just say it because you feel it);
Tokens and Exonumia are NOT accepted (no advertising tokens, etc.);
Copies or reproduction identified as such are NOT accepted;
You have neat pictures to provide (no neat pictures, no addition);
You send details of the coin as per the gallery template (pictures only is not sufficient).
Once you ticked all the above, you may send me a PM with details and pictures for review and addition.
Waiting for your requests!

Hello,
Perhaps we could have a similar Numisdoc but for contemporary forgeries? There are many such coins with niche collectors, from Peninsular War cast coins to Suecava forgeries of Livonian solidi, to silver-coated LMU era lead "silver" coins, and I'm sure many would be interested in such a page.
Let's first start with keeping this one up and running, and we'll see for other lists later on

Guys, I've seen a coin exactly like this one at a fair today in Bucharest: https://www.collectorshop24.eu/contents/nl/d941_Willem_1__1815-1840.html
I am amazed that I now found out it was fake, as it looked perfectly like silver ( I am expert in spotting silver).
It also has some fake wear.
I am scared that this kind of fake exists.
