This one is just for amusement. Some of the counterfeits I get in are pretty good, but clearly this one wasn't meant to fool anyone and falls into the souvenir category.

Nice to see COPY stamped on the rev. Is the weight within mint specs?

A good thing to see a bold and large COPY on the reverse. A really neat novelty for sure!

Note how much smaller the devices are compared with the real deal?

Note on the real example the devices have different spreads on the devices. One of the motto on the right device wider than the one on the right. On the Copy, both sets of the same device are the same size on the fake one. That is the differences I note on the copy coin.

I've seen this one before. They didn't even get the doubling going the right way. Dates one way, liberty the other.
