Very poor Replica of the real thing..Interesting that Fake Koalas are starting to appear..

There are quite a few of those little gram copy coins around. Turtles also are made in the same way.

Surprised they used that koala design - much better design years, ie 2009, 2010 etc.

Back on topic... bad bad counterfeiters!!!

1 gram with a $30 face value! Didn't think about that much did they. Probably copied the obverse from a 1kg.

The seller also thinks that they are legit, Good quality restrike he tells me, I reminded him that copying Australian legal tender is fraud.

They look very ugly. But eBay is full of fake products. I don't buy such things from there...

What terrible coins, their diameter is 15mm, about a shirt button size.
I should use my new 60x microscope I bought to watch nano-technology coins to watch these too, LOL
