These plated Greek "reproductions" are being sold by Siam12 on German and US eBay. The listings clearly state that the coins are plated copies, but the coins themselves are not marked as such. It's only a matter of time before they re-enter the market to become fodder for the uninitiated.

Stated weights and sizes are noted in the image file names.
