My favorite of these (selling cheap shit at a high markup while telling your marks how you're ripping them off) were the "gold buffalo nickel" coins, which were minted in East Bum####istan and sold in the middle of the early 2010s gold bug-gism, clad in something like a gram of gold; gold is sold in 28g ounces. Hell, it had to have been less than a gram. Anyway, they came with a certificate of authenticity and there was a strict limit of five per caller. They were like $20 each or some ungodly thing. More, probably.
