Hello,

My wife found this coin about 20 years ago while he was living in Puerto Rico. Last night we decided to do a little investigating. My instinct says that it's probably a fake, but I don't know enough to really make that determination on my own. Hopefully someone here can help. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.


It's about 13g, and 29mm diameter.

Tourist reproduction. Wrong metal.

You can also see the casting line around the edge.
