Interesting topic. I've got one of these but from a reputable British dealer who should've known better. It's the same size as an English five shilling piece, but still under weight. So I think it's a very old forgery designed to be slipped into a pile of Crown coins.

I would like to see your coin - the edge and can you indicate the weight?

It's got a milled edge and weighs about 18 grams. Having trouble uploading pics but will do one as soon as I've learned how to. 28.8mm wide.

I hope these pics are ok. It's taken me an hour to see what should've been obvious in the uploading process!

The yellowy tint is from my reading lamp and is nothing to do with the coin, oops, fake...

One of my problems was that I was using my iPhone to take the photos, so even when cropped the image had too many pixels. These were taken with a Lenovo tablet, that only has a 5mp camera.
