Fake hedgehog coin

Good day

I have managed to buy this fake by mistake, thinking it is the real deal. Turns out to be a fake made in China that I overpaid for. The advert do say silver clad steel. Does it mean that it should at least be a silver platted fake? I tested it and it did not react will my testing acid.
Are they even legal to cell as the coins are stamped .999 silver?

​Hi Jannie,
Sorry to hear that you have been taken in by a fake merchant - sadly there are far too many of them around. Yes, of course it is illegal, but you'll have a tough time getting any satisfaction through the Chinese courts.
