The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at You Know, That Thing Where.

I'm also going with The Reveal on this one as it appears identical to your other question.

We have Counterfeit Cash and Magical Counterfeiting, but neither article mentions a page for non-magical counterfeiting of valuables besides cash, so I don't think we have it yet.
EDIT: We do have Expensive Glass of Crap if the scammers successfully pass off a cheap vintage for a more valuable one.

A winery sells what proports to be wine from the 1930's. However, lab results prove it couldn't possibly be from any earlier than 1957. (It's probably much more recsnt than 1957, but no more precise evidence is ever told to the audience.)
