Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 11/04/2015 10:46 pm Definitely a cast fake. Tourist shops at Caribbean beach resorts have buckets of "pirate treasure" for the kids. Some are perfect replicas of the original, while others are simply fantasy coins designed to look old. Your coin appears to be heavily worn and environmentally damaged, yet there are no worn spots, nor significant discoloration. The fact that your coin appears to be struck in bronze (pretty sure this is a silver coin) and the visible casting seam just seal the deal. Report this Post to the Staff
