RE: 2008 Copper "Peace" Dollar

That is a pretty cool token! Crazy that the guy was arrested for counterfeiting coins! That is pretty wild. We have a $1 coin here called a Balboa or Martinelli (after the president who decided Panama would have a $1 coin). Panama has its own coins, but no paper money - we use US dollars here. Apparently they recently released that these Martinellis are very easy to counterfeit, so they are pulling them from circulation. I've also heard that was fake news, so who knows.

Wow, they look like the Canadian $2.00 coin! I can't imagine these are too easy to counterfeit, but what do I know.

Maybe it's easy to copy in China? No idea really where it would be easy to copy the coins! My husband thinks he's seen some counterfeits though! And I know a lot of shops around here have "copied" dollar bills with holes punched in them. I fell victim to a fake $1 bill once. It shredded in my fingers when it got wet!
