I have a question regarding the identification of the following coin. I have searched pictures, and seem to have come close at times, but can't seem to find a definite match.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 07/13/2020 9:08 pm Impossible to be sure now, but I can't dismiss the possibility that it may? be a tourist fake that has been well patinated with an extended in ground burial to give it an authentic desert patina. Also makes identification and authentication difficult. I stand to be corrected. Keep on investigating. This coin needs a better answer that I can give. Report this Post to the Staff
