Crarerfour.com is selling counterfeit US Mint coins
I ordered a US Mint 2026 Silver Eagle coin from this website. Silver Eagle coins are 1 ounce .999 fine silver. I have many of them but not this date.
My suspicions were aroused when I got the tracking information and saw that it was shipping from China! Why are US Mint coins being shipped from China, I asked myself?
When I finally received the coin, I tested it and found it was counterfeit!
How I tested it was using a magnet.
Pure silver will not be attracted to a magnet. I tested this on another Silver Eagle coin I had and the magnet wouldn't pick it up.
However, on the coin I was sent by this website from China, the magnet picked up the coin easily. So, the coin was a silver plated counterfeit!
I've seen other companies trying to sell US collectable coins on social media sites and in in-game ads. Beware!
If the price looks too good to be true, it probably will be counterfeit!
