I got this a while back and assumed it was PMD junk. Before I actually junk it I wanted to check in here. The coin weighs 6.57g, which comports with the weights of the other, normal, $2 coins I have. Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

markn Pillar of the Community Australia 1295 Posts	Posted 10/28/2013 9:36 pm Before you junk it a close up of the obverse lettering might be in order. The appearance of the edge is similar to what you might see if a coin was struck and then failed to leave the collar properly and then was struck again. That being said it's most likely PMD but we should rule out other possibilities first. Report this Post to the Staff
