    If you want a good gold coin fake you have to look for tungsten core and gold plating. But then the ring would be completely off.

    Thanks for sharing. I know I'm not the only one pissed off by these being produced.

    Why surprised?
    If they will fake a one ounce silver coin why not a one ounce gold coin?

    Surprise to see the micro-engrave n spiral r able to b fake... but picture is a bit blur, hope the actual fake coin is obvious to detect on its fineness.
