Fake coins are often made by pouring liquid metal into molds or dies. This procedure leaves die marks, such as cracks or pimples of metal on the counterfeit coin.

Some fake coins are also produced to simulate rare coins that may be of value to collectors. Counterfeiters do this through the alteration of genuine coins by removing, adding, or altering mint marks or the date printed on the coin.
