Fake £1 coins - who's got one?

Well it is their property regardless of whether it is fake...

Fair enough if you want to play it like that. Handling counterfit money is illegal so next time I will make sure to give the police a ring is they care so much about "their property" and see how much they claim it's theirs then :rolleyes:

Personally I just mind my own business and don't interfere with people commiting victimless crimes. ;)

But I bet they KNEW they had fake money!11!1 lol

Sadly I don't have any pound coins. No job = No money
Unless I make some fake £1 coins... then I will be rolling in it.
 
I once had a fake £5 note. I don't know where it came from (cinema, supermarket, etc). The local petrol station picked up on it when I was buying a Coke. I took it back and went to the corner shop who weren't as eagle eyed...
 
Best way to do it is to look at the writing around the edge.
Where the better fakes fall down is the small letters (Lowercase e, s etc)- They loose definition. On fakes, you also get the writing moving up & down around the edge- Should be completely in the middle.

Also this may sound odd, but try dropping them on a metal till lid- The fakes don't bounce in the same way :)

Work for Tescos, and the amount of fakes we see is stunning. We give them back though, have found it causes far too many fights if we don't.
