The big difference being the Secret Service is going to be turning over rocks to find a counterfeiter. It's considered an existential crime, in most coutries, to counterfeit, as it undermines the government and diminishes their credibility. They're not simply going to have the credit card police after them, but treasury agents.

I would agree with you on silver dollars and bullion, but the value of silver dimes is about $1.75 a piece. So I have never heard of them being faked- not enough juice in the squeeze.
