Somoan coinage has only been around since 1967, and they never made a $10 coin, only up to $1.00 and before that they used New Zealnad coinage.  "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R.

Looks like it had a pin back once, reused as jewelry. 1609 might've been the hard date for that issue.  |

Did you notice it's even a 1609- S? From an alternate reality, where the west coast was colonized first.  |

I bought this coin at a flea market in Penang, Malaysia. Many old coins, notes, stamps, antics and also rubbish sold there. If you get luck you can find a high value old item sold there and most of the sellers don't know the real value of it.
