Thanks again, vermontensium. Stuff like that keeps me from buying much.  Except from members of my local coin club. |

I know squat about colonials, but I knew right away that was fake. THAT was a true example of bidding stupidity.

I think the coin/token/toy depicted was sold as a souvenir in the 1950s and 1960s.
It seems to me I saw them at Disney Land or Knott's Berry Farm in Southern California.
I have three similar coins/tokens/toys that were given to me a few years ago.
One of them is poorly marked as a copy.
In hand they are very easy to tell they are not genuine.
They are all copper plated and the plating is very poor.
The details are very weak.

There's even a picture of the edge. Maybe 15 copy collectors bid on it.
