jasper62 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 08:12 am The only thing I can think of is a full brockage strike. https://www.greatcollections.com/Co...e-PCGS-MS-65 Click on the picture and you can magnify it.

klssrs1003 New Member United States 11 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 08:41 am Rear of coin. Embedded print. Not a magician coin, no seams. I will try to get thickness and diameter when I go to the garage and get calipers, I don't have a way to weigh it. Report this Post to the Staff

klssrs1003 New Member United States 11 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 08:58 am Jasper62, I looked a few up. That's exactly what it looks like. I guess I should have it graded or appraised? Report this Post to the Staff
jasper62 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 09:27 am I would get a few more opinions before you send it off. if somebody could share this with coop or Mike Diamond would be great. I'm going with full brockage unless it's deemed fake Report this Post to the Staff
klssrs1003 New Member United States 11 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 09:37 am Jasper62, it was also one of the ones I dug up as a kid. I'm going to try to get by a different coin shop today. Taking a 1857 cent and Indian Head cents with me. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 10:17 am On the "normal" side that Rim Fin that goes all the way around is a bit odd don't you think. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
klssrs1003 New Member United States 11 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 12:02 pm Well coin shop deemed it an oddity. They said the rim looks weird but didn't know who would spend that much time trying to make it. Guess it's probably a fake and throw it in a separate bag. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97062 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 5:16 pm Yes, these images are much better, thanks. Not the full ' Rim Fin' bothers me - I have never seen one circumvent the entire coin before. The lighting is another issue. One the "Front" image the light is coming in from the right, and the light from "rear of the coin" is coming in from the Left. Can you get us a mirror image? Hold the coin in front of a mirror and take a picture so both sides can be seen at the same time in the same picture. Please? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Tacc Pillar of the Community United States 3535 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 6:38 pm This post was a little a confusing, but what your saying is, There is a regular obverse on one side and a mirrored obverse on the other side. I've never seen a Magicians coin quite done like that. Keep it as a curiosity no doubt! Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 7:56 pm to the CCF The OP is saying the obverse is normal, and the reverse is mirrored or backwards. As jasper62 posted, a full brockage. The only thing that bothers me is that the coat has a few differences between the normal and reversed image. If it is a full brockage, it's worth some bucks.

Tacc Pillar of the Community United States 3535 Posts	Posted 10/21/2023 8:43 pm Yeah, I hope it turns out to be a legitimate Brockage coin! Great learning experience for me at least. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97062 Posts	Posted 10/22/2023 09:14 am I'm hoping that the OP will provide a mirror image of both sides. Collecting since 1972.
