Just a very poor counterfeit. Here is a picture of an actual lead cast contemporary.  Edited by JimmyD

I think it was someone's experiment.

After some time examining the images and doing some research, it looks like this is an extremely poor modern counterfeit. I was incorrect in my post in the other thread.  |

I've seen a number of contemporary counterfeits, cast pot metal, like the one posted by JimmyD.
I agree with SilverDollar2017 .... Modern or possibly mid 20th century fake; possibly play money.

Doesn't look like a contemporary, looks like a modern and not a recent modern.

Almost looks like WWI trench art.

Seems like a lot of effort for such a poor result.

The Barber Coin Collectors' Society has a page of contemporary counterfeit images on their website http://barbercoins.org/CCounterfeits.shtmlI'm in agreement that the coin in question isn't a contemporary counterfeit. As to when or where it was made I have no idea. -MV |

I really love that backward D on that coin. If it was made in our US mint, someone would have been sort of dismissed from service.
