Credits and Appreciation

This website would not have been possible without the support of Canadian counterfeit coin expert Mike Marshall. Mike's efforts have gone a long way towards combatting the scourge of numismatic and contemporary counterfeits in online markets. Mike has also provided guidance, support and feedback in the development of this website and the underlying research. Thank you!

Many of the photographs appearing on this website were taken by Jeff Wilson. They are far superior to the original photos which first appeared here and offer viewers a crisp, clear image of the coins and the many defects found on them. Thank you!
