Fall2021 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 06/27/2021 09:15 am I have no idea if this is a real coin and if it is what it is. Can anyone help? Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 06/27/2021 09:28 am @fall, first welcome to CCF. Second, can you please give us a diameter and weight for this piece (of course not including the plastic holder)? Thx. Third, I'm going to move your thread to the unidentified subforum so that we can get some good eyes on it. If we can figure out what it is (or what it is pretending to be), then we might need to move this thread to a final resting place.

Fall2021 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 06/27/2021 09:38 am Thanks for the quick response. This belongs to a waitress at a local restaurant and I am trying to help her identify it. I will get the coin from her and get the information posted. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16806 Posts	Posted 06/27/2021 8:15 pm Bob L is correct; it's another "Reader's Digest" replica Owl tetradrachm, complete with the standard "Edvard Munch eyes" and two-planks-for-wings. There are so many of these things out there, and they all seem to have been separated from their original context. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
