Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 06/27/2016 7:48 pm The COA says it was struck by 'The National Collector's Mint' -- whatever that is. Report this Post to the Staff
GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 06/27/2016 8:58 pm If you blow up the COA you can read some of the information. 13 milligrams 24 kt pure gold Clad bronze Which means it is a bronze coin plated with 13 mg of 24K gold Nice way of saying just a gold plated copy of a coin.

Was OP seriously considering buying a "coin" that had copy stamped on it with clear warnings that it was just a gold plated clad medal? When we are new to collecting, you don't know as much as you do after 20 years of collecting! So keep that in mind CCF and don't frighten off another person! Sorry, gladis_gladiator! Oh, by the way: to CCF, gladis_gladiator! Edited by coinlover1899 06/28/2016 1:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff
dsfreeworld Pillar of the Community United States 4337 Posts	Posted 06/28/2016 2:44 pm i believe this post was more authentic than the troll with the 1880 nickel and the 3 other key date coins that were "sold to the local dealer" that we'll never see pics of. Report this Post to the Staff

terry8835 Pillar of the Community United States 1450 Posts	Posted 07/01/2016 1:12 pm I have seen many advertisements on TV for .999% gold clad Buffalo "Tribute" coins. They sell for $9.95 plus S&H. Do they think people are idiots or is this a way to sell fakes and attempt to scam people down the line. I have seen gold clad $20 gold pieces for sale. To me this is pure BS and almost fraud. Why would you buy something like that unless you were going to attempt to pass it off as real to some sucker? Report this Post to the Staff

Gold @ ~$1350/oz comes out to about $0.62 worth of gold on those plates. Count me out Edited by JJuliano 07/04/2016 12:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff
