Take a look at the coin in the upper left...

The odds are extremely low of course, but I saw it and thought why not give it a shot.

So, are you the proud owner of this probable Old Sturbridge Village souvenir now? Could you give us a closer look?

Yup.
More than likely, one of the many cast copies out there.

I never turn away from an experience with the false; it makes one a better appraiser of the true.

Indeed! It appears to be a british halfpenny I presume from the years 1860-1894.
