My picture didn't post.

When I weigh it, it blips between 6 & 7 grams. It spends more time on 6 grams. It is almost 1 1/2 in across.

Welcome to the forums.

I don't see anything. Are you sure you are not confusing copper with a little toning ?

Denco, thank you for the welcome. :)

It has copr under In God we trust. I don't know what that is for.

Thank you! It doesn't attract a magnet. Tried 3 different ones. I thought the copr looked very odd. :)

There have been *so* many times - some of them browsing this forum - when I wanted to see how far I could throw my Galaxy.

Hmmm... an fake that is not a fake error, but an errored fake! Could be collectable some day.

Personally I kind of like this.
