awallin01 Valued Member United Kingdom 477 Posts	Posted 03/25/2014 11:01 am Welcome too Coin Community! The reverse design is a Trade dollar with no date, and the obverse looks like a gothic Victoria. I will keep looking, for a match. Report this Post to the Staff

I'm going to guess this is a fantasy piece.

awallin01 Valued Member United Kingdom 477 Posts	Posted 03/25/2014 11:11 am Right it appears to be described in this link http://taxfreegold.co.uk/patternsov...sonebay.html it's the one priced £60. However let me find the actual coin somewhere to be 100%, and hopefully someone else will chime in with there advice/help/opinion. :) I can't find a copy of the coin, but the link above seems to identify the coin pictured rather well. As mentioned above unfortunately it is a fantasy piece, and the price mentioned is what the seller was asking for. Not an indicator of true value, the example is what the seller was listing in their description. Hope this helps, and I hope you didn't pay much for it.

When the authorities weigh in on this one, my bet is it'll be judged to be a fantasy piece. Report this Post to the Staff

traevin Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 03/26/2014 8:08 pm I saw something similar to this a while back. Not exactly the same, and definitely not what you have, but close. This is where the maker probably got the design, though. Like someone already mentioned, I also believe it's a Trade dollar or, more precisely, a copy of one. Maybe a fantasy piece found in Krause's Unusual World Coins. Here's a pic: Report this Post to the Staff
