I'm thinking it was once nailed up over a door, but that in and of itself can't account for all of the damage done along the way to this one....

Nailed to a door, then what? Ripped off with brute force and fed to a dinosaur? Kinda looks like it.

When I read your title, I thought Donald Trump had joined CCF! Seriously, that coin has a lot of history....

A very cool pocket piece, I'd say. I doubt you would ever run in to another collector carrying one of those

Quite possibly, this was used as a witches' coin, nailed to a doorway to ward off evil. Double the history, this, and a great conversation piece!
