@Fernagh, are you looking for a grade on this coin or opinions on whether it is fake or not? I can move this over to a better sub-forum depending on your answer. Thx.

Bogus for sure, man!
What strikes me the most is WHY anyone would waste the time and energy to make a fake coin that's only worth five cents; especially in that condition.

Cool fake. Like the blunt nose and totally-off mouth. Keep it as an example of a comically-done fake.
