50Sproofs New Member United States 21 Posts	Posted 11/10/2019 9:09 pm Hi guys, I have what I think is a 2.5 gold piece but the front is worn smooth and I can't match the back with any design on coinfacts. The biggest issue is the it say 2.50 not 2 1/2 like all others I know of and the olive leaves at the bottom are different. Any help would be appreciated. I know without a date from the front I'm prop sol on getting an exact match but I would like to at least know the type.. * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

50Sproofs New Member United States 21 Posts	Posted 11/11/2019 11:06 am Thanks for all the help so far. The weight is only 1.77 grams. It does have a reeded edge if that helps. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 11/11/2019 5:23 pm @50SP, due to the blurriness, I can't really make out any design features on the rev. Is it actually just blank?
