Think it's fake?

Post by Carebear » Thu May 22, 2025 10:13 am

Hello again I think I found a fake toonie but not sure. It's very dull finish so hoping maybe someone can let me know? It's a 2005. Thanks!

Looks legit.
It is the camel toe toonie that is counterfeit.

The German Planchet was only in 1996.
What you have is just some discolouration, it could be caused by anything,
doesn’t really matter what.

It doesn't look like a cameltoe, like others that I've seen here around the T.O. area. As stated above, it is disclored by something, maybe a cleaning gone bad.
