Coin Fraud Lawyer

What Is Coin Fraud?

Coin fraud is a criminal offense in which someone knowingly engages in deceptive practices to defraud another party of monetary value by misrepresenting a coin’s authenticity, grade, or provenance.

This can include:

• Counterfeiting rare or valuable coins
• Tampering with third-party grading encapsulation, also known as “slabbing”
• Forging certificates of authenticity
• Making false or misleading claims during coin sales or auctions

Such actions may lead to federal charges under statutes related to fraud, counterfeiting, and wire/mail fraud. State-level charges may also apply under consumer protection laws, theft by deception, or fraud statutes.

Criminal liability is typically established when there is clear intent to mislead or financially harm a buyer or investor. In many jurisdictions, the offense may rise to the level of a felony if the value involved exceeds specific monetary thresholds.

How To Report a Coin Scam

Victims of coin fraud should act quickly to preserve their rights and initiate recovery proceedings.

The following steps are recommended:

• Document the transaction: Secure all purchase receipts, appraisals, certificates of authenticity, grading reports, communication records, and payment confirmations.
• File a complaint with the FTC: The Federal Trade Commission accepts reports related to fraudulent coin and bullion sales.
• Contact the Numismatic Crime Information Center (NCIC): This national database tracks coin-related crimes and can assist in flagging fraudulent dealers and recovering stolen property.
• Notify law enforcement: Local police reports are foundational in establishing an official criminal investigation.
• Consult our coin fraud attorney firm: Our legal team can initiate civil claims, pursue restitution, and coordinate with specific agencies that have jurisdiction over counterfeiting crimes.
