Are Replicas and Reproductions the Same?

And the reason I ask is because I'm seeing more and more sellers from China listing reproductions in the Original item sections that I enjoy. Says 'Reproduction' right in the title, not trying to fool anyone, just in the wrong section.

 

Thanks.

One in the same. I've read that if you ask a Chinese seller to Omit the words, copy, replica, reproduction, etc,
stamped on collectible coins that are pouring out of China, They are happy to do so.

I've also read that EBAY has been flooded with fake coins, some valuable and some not valuable.

I've also read that some of these coins are encased in PCGS and NGC "Slabs" that are produced in China.

As far as categories, They are literally everywhere.
