keepcalmandcoinon Pillar of the Community United States 865 Posts	Posted 03/10/2017 2:29 pm Actually that's exactly what it is. It's a counterfeit of a 1639-1649 Lion Daalder from Netherlands. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces40626.html Edited by keepcalmandcoinon 03/10/2017 2:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff
