Upon inspection, this is a oversized coin, look at size of finger nails for comparison.

Some wear from clearly being old/authentic
also willing to trade for a tiny house or electric scooter.


CLEARLY old and authentic, he says so right in the listing. I just so happen to have a tiny house just laying around, I think I'll take a shot at it.

That is funny about a tiny house. We had massive flooding and I saw plenty of damaged coins. However gold washes off pretty well. Looks like brass to me.

I think it's a 3" cup saucer with a coin design on it. I've seen these with other U.S. coin designs on them.

I just held a double eagle that way and it looks pretty small compared with this treasure. It must weigh at least four ounces. I wonder why he's asking so little for it. Oh - the damage.

I have an electric scooter that does not run, but the scooter is properly worth more than the coin.

Do a small house and an electric scooter coat the same where ever he lives? I mean here a brand new E-scooter would be 1-2000$, the cheapest house you will find is 300-400k and would be filled with asbestos. And ya I didn't know gold could tarnish like that.
