Soooo many details, including the date and eagle, are way off. Good eye to both of you for catching it. Would be curious about what it weighs, if you have a scale.

I don't have a scale sorry, I guess I should turn it into the police or something.

Well, I think that this is the official Treasury position on what to do: https://www.treasury.gov/about/orga...suspect.aspxAdded: although I see that it seems slanted toward counterfeit bills, the link for counterfeit coins takes you to these same directions.

Keep it...that's a nice metal disc
Secret Service wont care, I had a neighbor that worked for them and showed him a fake five (willing to turn it over), long story short, they only care about larger bills 50s and 100s.

Well as the saying goes. "It's not always that the first mouse that gets the cheese."  Know what can happen makes us alert. Edited by coop
