It's such a bad fake with ground in "toning".

I always love seeing these really terrible fakes because it means the idiots making them are rarely going to catch someone that either knows the series, or recognizes the typical indicators of a bad counterfeit.

I have to agree with moxking. It's just too obvious that the coin is a counterfeit. The artificial black toning, the blurry detail and the general feeling that something's off (color, metal, etc) are giveaways. I have to say that this one comes a bit closer to the original than some of the Chinese fantasy tokens resembling coins that I've seen, but still...
