@all, when we see this sort of thing on US coins, it is invariably a so-called Magician's coin. I'm not seeing any separation a the rim on either face, but can you please add a picture of the edge? Thx. "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

I agree—no seam that is obvious. I'm stumped. Maybe a fantasy fake? Does it weigh the right amount?

Double sided coins are usually attributed to 'Mint Sport', and rely on the gullibility of the collector to hand over their cash for them.

I cant pick anything wrong, based on the pics.
However, note well Sap's comments in linked thread.
Needs to be authenticated.
Be prepared to be disappointed.

I have looked at link where sap was mentioning about these certain coins. My only option is to get this authenticated with a grade if possible, I will let yous know what outcome I get.

  Will you be sending it to PCGS for grading?  Will you be selling it ?
