However after look at it for a while I thought maybe a fake, note I did have a look at the (2003-2004 fakes and it doesn't look like that)? Or someelse? I haven't weight it but it feels wrong in the hand tho (could be just the wear) the tint of the coin is slightly dark but not darker as in dirty, as in different As you can see it is worn but it not the way you would come to expect of 2 dollar coins typically wear convexed rounding of the edges not the fields being worn first Report this Post to the Staff

ryurazu Pillar of the Community Australia 1333 Posts	Posted 12/21/2018 10:58 pm True that was my first though, but there not much reason to do it to a two dollar coin other than it was used a some sort of acidity test even then you probably want to use a small denomination of coin eg. 50c. Oh one more thing the edge pattern is quite clear and not worn away o.O So thats the mystery, wouldn't mind keeping a fake counterfeit Report this Post to the Staff
