Nazis have no room to complain. They faked British 'fivers' during the war, which is why they were changed. (The fivers, that is.)
A couple of Victorian helmet-divers made a steady living 'finding' antiquities in the Thames. I believe that authenticated examples of their product fetch as much as the gunuine Roman stuff.
