Folks,

This coin was in my brother's collection. The only info I have about when is a notation on the envelope that he bought it at the Franklin Mint in 1970. I've seen numerous coins on the internet with the same obv and rev, but no date. The coin is 1.5 inches in diameter, a little thicker than 1/16 of an inch, and weighs 0.425 oz. It is bright shiny gold color.

Does anyone know anything about it?

Thanks.

Bill

I couldn't find an example that exactly matched your piece, but you might look at the following links. They are pretty close. It could be gold-plated silver, but you'd need to take it to a dealer to confirm that, I would think. 1970 may be before the Franklin Mint started putting dates on their collector tokens.
