Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 04/23/2017 1:03 pm I think the probability of this being anything but a modern numismatic forgery would have to be extremely low. Divulging the source by which you acquired it may add context to that assessment. Colligo ergo sum Edited by Lucky Cuss 04/23/2017 1:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
