Coinfanmorgan Valued Member 357 Posts	Posted 12/11/2012 10:16 pm Certainly a cool coin if real. Any Pillars of the Community know what this is? Report this Post to the Staff
copper nickel daddy Pillar of the Community United States 2224 Posts	Posted 12/11/2012 10:20 pm First of all, To the Community! A clearer picture would help, but this is no doubt a magician's trick coin. Look carefully around the rim; you will see a very thin seam where two coins were cut in half and the two reverses were soldered together. Odds are the two obverses are out there fooling people, too!

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 12/12/2012 06:59 am If the coin has a high quality join, the most probable place to find it would be on the edge, most probably at the right angle, where obv. or rev. face meets the edge. Should be able to find it with a 10x loupe. Report this Post to the Staff
