davjenn New Member Australia 13 Posts	Posted 12/07/2017 03:44 am I have this Cook Islands Capricorn Commemoration Coin that is spelt Blizabeth II. Is this a rare coin and worth getting authenticated? Report this Post to the Staff

999fine Pillar of the Community United States 1346 Posts	Posted 12/07/2017 08:18 am It appears to be a token of private manufacture. Note no face value is indicated. Report this Post to the Staff
BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 12/07/2017 10:22 am I suspect that the URL should not be posted here, but I found this on a website of items from China. It is 24kt gold plated. This is an interesting, and not at all surprising mistake on their part, but not worth anything. Edited by BigSilver 12/07/2017 10:23 am Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16827 Posts	Posted 12/07/2017 9:23 pm I suspect the Chinese fake-makers are trying to bump up the value of their "products" by deliberately creating spelling errors like this. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34409 Posts	Posted 12/07/2017 9:29 pm @davjenn, sorry but I agree with the others. You almost certainly have a fake coin with virtually zero value--if it were me, I'd try to return this to the seller and get back my purchase price.
