pls Rest in Peace United States 1729 Posts	Posted 02/07/2012 9:09 pm Thanks for asking for my help, but I'd have to go with biggfredd's answer - except Captain Crunch. Seriously, welcome to the forum. Are colors in the photos true - almost white and bright blue? Report this Post to the Staff

Cajunlady0 Valued Member United States 318 Posts	Posted 02/08/2012 09:49 am I see on the obverse a head facing right.......almost the whole size of the coin. The reverse shows a man riding something... not sure what it is. Interesting coin.....wish I could help more. Someone should come along soon that can help you more. By the way, WELCOME to the forum!
