There are thousands upon thousands of these in circulation just like there are thousands of platinum plated quarters in circulation. People bought the "CoinVault" sets from the TV show and later found out they weren't worth anything over face so they spent them. That's what this one is....basically a decent professional job of gold plating on a coin. It's worth 25 cents.

If it were a dollar planchet the rim would be wider like the mule shown by Bobby.

A quick test would be to drop the coin in a vending machine. If the machine rejects it, you may have an incorrect planchet error. If the machine accepts it, it was just a gold plated quarter. Of course if you wanted to keep the coin, this is a lousy way to test it.

I think it's gold plated.
