Blueskyisnow1234 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 05/23/2022 1:40 pm I picked this coin up at a flea market. Unfortunately the seller couldn't give me information about its authenticity. I've been told by a local coin dealer that it probably wasn't genuine. So I am posting it here for any additional information that can be related regarding its status. It is non-magnetic. I appreciate any information. Report this Post to the Staff

A genuine example even in fine grade is easily a 300 usd coin.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 05/23/2022 11:38 pm Have a close look at the fields with high powered loupe for signs of casting Find accurate weight Comparative ping tone test, but that may be difficult to find an exact equivalent 3.6 candareens coin. Coins copied from coins almost always show signs of indistinct finer details in the designs. Copy fakes also often show inconsistent dots inside the edges and indistinct uneven edge milling.
