We have made a very important decision about selling false stamps and coins on Delcampe.

Until present, members were authorized to sell forgeries which were manufactured before 1945 if the term  FORGERY was mentionned in the item's title and description, using capital letters.

From now on, an irremoveable  mark has to be added to all fake coins and stamps. This mark will be made by using a special ink when selling fake stamps, whereas a hallmark must be added to all fake coins.

Consequently, our  Terms and conditions have been adapted according to the new rule.

This decision was based on ethics because we want to avoid that fake coins can be sold to other collectors as real ones on our website or on other websites.

In all categories except stamps, like coins or post cards, selling fake items is strictly forbidden and no exceptions will be made.
