It is a year 2000 mob of roos $1 coin and on the back right ontop of the 2000 year there is a big number 2 engraved in the coin? it looks like it may of come from the mint like this as there is no markings to suggest it was done after the fact..Could it be a test coin of some sort? Hope you can solve this one out for me, I have taken pics aswell, I know the pics arnet the best but thats the best I can get of my phone regards Report this Post to the Staff

You see these in your change every now and then. They are unusual but are not an error coin and have no numismatic value . Unlike the 2000 Muled coin this one has been Tooled Stick around on this site and you will learn a mass of information from the error experts here (Not Me).
