A Mulberry businessman was arrested Wednesday after an investigation showed
that he was making and selling fake antique and rare coins, the Polk County
Sheriff's Office said.

Deputy sheriffs said John Green, 47, owner of AAA Coin & Jewelry, was
counterfeiting the coins and selling them at what would have been market
value for real ones. He was arrested on three counts of cheating (obtaining
money by false pretense) and three counts of grand theft.

Green also was arrested in December 2006 on grand theft and forgery-related
charges that the Sheriff's Office said stem from similar circumstances. That
case is pending.
