Fake gold coins vs Real

This video really makes you think twice about buying from ebay or even craigslist. What is amzing to me is that the weight is exactly the same too.

Yeah, bullion is definitely something to buy from a trusted seller! I think there are a lot more gold bars filled with tungsten out there than people think, although that just applies to larger bars.

People fake everything, hell coins have been one of the longest faked items in existence. You should always be careful when buying bullion, compare size, weight and I even bring calipers with me and check diameter and thickness to the 1/10mm as well. I'm not big into flipping gold as I don't have enough capital, but bought my first 1oz gold a few weekends ago off CL for 1050 and sold it for 1212 within a week. I was really worried about getting a tungsten core though.
