Spotting Counterfeit Coins by TeamDuck
I recently found a weird looking pound coin in my wallet, and after a bit of research, I found out it was fake. Hopefully this Instructable will stop you from being ripped off with fake coins, as you can't use them in vending machines and many shops wont take them.

When I was alot younger, the local shop keeper used to save me all the dud £1 coins, what he didn't know was it was me slipping him them in the first place ;)
