It's a rich man's world.

Man jailed over 14m fake £1 coins

Now, I'm not saying this guy is stupid....... oh, hang on, actually I am.

It is thought that at one stage he was making 10,000 to 12,000 coins per day and was paid about £2,000 in cash a week by the two men.

Two things:

1. You're selling £10,000 worth of coins for £2,000. This isn't Deal Or No Deal, y'know.
2. If you're dealing with people operating some kind of scheme involving forged money, do you really want them to pay you in cash?
