I came across this coin in my attic awhile back and I've come back to take another look and I was suspicious of this one because it has a chain . I saw a similar chain and the casing on ebay but I'm still not sure. I plan on selling this on ebay and I see it selling for $1900-$2200 Any tip for selling there?

The chain and bezel by themselves aren't particularly suspicious, since it's easy to buy a bezel like that at any coin shop.

You can easily prove it's real gold by bringing it to a jeweler and having it tested.

Your photos are not sufficient to offer any opinions on authenticity of the coin ...

Well since it may be gold you could file a small section of it. If it isn't gold it will become apparent right away, if it is gold the same holds true.

Youd have to have better pictures if you wanted opinions on the coin itself. You can check the size and design though against real ones to get an idea
