Amalthea New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 08/06/2019 3:02 pm Coin appears to be brass ~2 inches in diameter and very heavy. I am having no luck online so I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. Any help is appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

However, I unfortunately don't know what coin it is imitating.
