Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 01/02/2009 5:40 pm gxseries- I agree with gxseries that this coin is of questionable authenticity. These are a popular type of coin for forgers. In fact, tons of these end up in Asian trinket-type stores in shopping malls all over the world. Often there will be baskets full of these and many a layperson ends up buying one as a curiosity. Report this Post to the Staff
