Copy
- Explanation: Refers to a reproduction of a coin or paper note. Some copies may be illegal. Current government regulations require reproductions of US coins and paper money to be much larger or smaller than the original. For copies of tokens and non-US-government coins the 'hobby protection act' requires that the item contains the word 'copy' or 'reproduction' in a readable visible place. Advice: Don't get caught making a copy of something without finding out exactly what is legal
