It looks like silversmith or jeweler flatware initialing and bright cutting. Nicely done.
Who knows why they did it on a coin. Folk art at best.

It might of been done to cover up other flaws. If it was they should have left it alone. The other flaws probably weren't as bad as what they ended up with. |

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I am not that beholder. Even the engraving is not that good.   I have a gut feel neither the coin nor the engraving is what they pretend to be. Edited by IndianGoldEagle

Not for everyone but I like it. It appears to be a period piece and as a Civil War date it is very desirable. A nicely engraved 1867 and some deeply engraved other areas that match quite well. All of this on a nice AU coin. You might be surprised at what it sells for.

@NE Your comment seems directly aimed at getting yourself banned from this forum. It can happen very quickly if you like, or it can be a bit drawn out. The end result is the same because of your approach. It's a funny thing when you only have yourself to blame.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

So is this a fake? It seems to be in question based on other members' comments, but I have little knowledge about these. I can bump your question, though.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

I don't believe anyone has questioned the authenticity of the coin, the discussion has just been with its mutilation.
