crazyglue Valued Member United States 467 Posts	Posted 10/24/2015 7:37 pm I have this coin, but I am pretty sure it is fake. I am definitely not an expert at all, so I am hoping to verify before I throw it away or put it in a flip and write fake on it and throw it in my bucket of not so important coins. The obverse looks alarming to my untrained eye (the big lettering for starters). It weighs 4.8 grams. Thank you for taking a look and confirming (or maybe if I am super lucky, telling me I'm just plain wrong lol). Edited by crazyglue 10/24/2015 7:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff
