french coin knives

Post by LAURAJEAN1954 »

i have a old french 5 franc coin knife my father gave me in the 1960s, it lists for 200,300$ steady when i was looking up i found out they making repos in france, same styles and years with just 2 tiny differences,so you can have honest person or a dishonest seller you just never know, and now the chinese are flooding the market with fake collectables . its a shame :

Yep, it is a real shame some folks must sink to such depths of dishonesty ::facepalm:: as to copy someone else's hard work, LJ!
I'm not understanding the figure you posted 200,300$, what's that in US dollars? If it turns out to be what it appears to be, you have one valuable coin knife on you hands there girl.
Can you please post some pictures of your knife? Thx!
Oh yah, ::welcome:: to AAPK! ::handshake::
