Thank you for sharing Im going to return them.
Did you really think you were buying real .999 silver for those prices? LOL!

Exactly lol
They are made of Zinc Alloy. They all say so in the listings if you look. Why would Silver mint sell through TEMU? Because they don't. Who would actually think you were getting real Silver for 10% of Spot price plus free shipping from CHINA. Talk about dumb
Are they even worth buying bc some say antique silver, copper. Also could it be like buying from Amazon or are the coin all fake from Temu. I didn't know if some were real or not?

Really? They're all counterfeit coins from china..it's not hard if you know what you're doing
Isn’t it against the law to do that?

Maybe in USA but not New China America
I expected to get fake stuff given the price. But it's a nice paperweight. The gold coin I received has a deliberate error, 5000LLRRS instead of 50 DOLLARS. So it's fake but not counterfeit. The silver bars I got don't have any deliberate errors but I don't think the match any real bars, so to someone knowledgeable they recognizable as fake.
Adding in edit here, the gold and silver failed the magnet test. Fake but pretty.
Since neither metal is magnetic I'm a bit baffled by this post! But of course the coins are fake - no one would be able sell genuine silver at a fraction of its world market price and stay in business for long.
You can test copper/silver/gold with a magnet. A high powered magnet will slide slowly down. Drop a magnet through a copper pipe and it will take several seconds to fall through.
I buy from Temu a lot and when first went on the site I knew automatically they were not real. I don’t see how people think they’re real. I read the reviews just for laughs. If you thoroughly read the listing most all day party favor, collection, for collecting only, plated and the forever stamps they have a roll of 100 for $2 say for collecting only but always people whining in the reviews not real 😂
The real problem is that these fakes will be resold through other sites as genuine. The Chinese Communist Party is laughing all the way to the bank.
