What do you call a counterfeit of a fake? Found this humorous item from a numismatic coin forum. Apparently the "original" that the Chinese counterfeiters obtained to model their fake after was itself a fake. Here's the post from coinpeople.com "This Chinese counterfeiter apparently purchased one of the numerous fakes of the 1834 Alexander rouble and then duplicated it for sale. Is there any kind of a numismatic name for a fake of a fake? RWJ" Justice there of a sort. What's a good name for a counterfeit of a fake? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=130288325113

Re: What do you call a counterfeit of a fake? at the risk of opening a can'o'worms discussion, is there any straightforward way to recognise that this coin is a fake? the supersized images look worn but i'd not know it from a real coin. i'm presuming they got basic details like the wording and pictures right.

Re: What do you call a counterfeit of a fake? countercounterfeit, as a double negative, so perhaps it should just be feit.
