I posted that very same suspicion about 6 months back.
That would be quite interesting.
Purely hypothetical here:
A guy drops $200 on a new "Philly" labeled Gold Dollar, and gushes about how great the shave is.
A guy drops $10 on a Gold Dollar labelled Gold Dollar, gets the same fine edge (they do take nice edges...but I'm biased FWIW), but since it came from China, and only cost $10, it gets the cold shoulder...
The Emperor's new clothes!:hmmm:
