-Counterfeit research library+Counterfeit research library. This is focused on what the chip markings assert as opposed to what the seller asserts. For example, a buyer could be unhappy if they bought a new chip with ESD damage, but its more of a gray area vs a chip that has been remarked and has an incorrect die.

 +Counterfeit IC: a chip (ie marking) that misrepresents the product. This might include: 
 +  * Incorrect die 
 +  * Missing die 
 +  * Incorrect date 
 +  * Incorrect speed grade 
 + 
 +These are also of interest but not the primary focus: 
 +  * Used vs new 
 +  * General EOS such as ESD damage 
 + 
 +Sometimes a manufacturer will remark its own chips (ex: downgrading speed). However these are rare and less common in modern times. (TODO: find example)
