tokenmast Pillar of the Community United States 648 Posts	Posted 02/22/2012 1:41 pm echizento Do You think it's tooled because of low wear on convex side? If it is/was gold would that account for the deep impressions? Report this Post to the Staff

ancientcoinguy Pillar of the Community United States 842 Posts	Posted 02/22/2012 5:06 pm I agree, Doug. it looks like overcleaned copper that has been shot in a yellow light to make it look like gold. I would stay away. Report this Post to the Staff
