I think/thought I had this pretty well identified until I checked the weight and size. Quite different to the listed sizes.
List 4.5 gram 26 mm diameter
My coin 3 gram 24 mm diameter
Can anyone show me what I am missing or explain differences please?
Thanks, paul

My guess is, that with the copper coins, they did not worry too much about the weight in '64. (16, that is!).
That being the case, I am guessing that this coin is quite legit.
Nice coin, considering the condition.
Sometimes, these were quite carelessly made.
