Interesting. Possibly the work of a seaman pulling duty in a machine shop on a warship somewhere in the Central Pacific in early '45. If 'stuff' could talk...

That is indeed a fun coin. I enjoyed reading the several intentional misspellings.

Enjoy your camping trip.

Just acquired another several hundred fakes and counterfeits.



It is a ridiculous counterfeit, though. To the point where your suggestion that it might be play money seems reasonable.

That's one of the "best" fakes I've ever seen - quite a find, tropicalbats!
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

So many things vying for our attention and some are quite humorous.

Maybe this is some of the money the Germans brought ashore in Ponte Vedra Beach (near Jacksonville) in 1942 during WWII.
No wonder they were caught!!

Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
