BettinaC New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 12/26/2023 10:53 pm I am a jewelry dealer who comes across alot of coins while traveling overseas, but I know very little about coins and I have limited experience with coins. Researching online is helpful but your input would be greatly appreciated. I think it is fake but I'm too inexperienced. Thank you for any help.

MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2003 Posts	Posted 12/27/2023 09:43 am Yes it is fake but it may look nice in a belt buckle or pendant since you are a jeweler providing that you disclose that it is a reproduction. Report this Post to the Staff

BettinaC New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 01/03/2024 12:45 pm Thank You Everyone!! For the welcome and the help.I did not buy this coin but am offered coins often in my travels. I was traveling through Morocco for 3 months and there are alot of coins there! Old Moroccan coins are used often in Berber/Amazigh jewelry, but there are many foreign coins there as well and many coin collectors. When my clients come across American coins they ask me about them, however I do not have the expertise. Hopefully I will come across some great authentic ones! Thanks again.

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 01/03/2024 3:35 pm If Morocco is anything like SE Asia, some vendors in markets have bins full of these things. You have to be wary. As with gems, they'll go through all sorts of sales pitch stuff to demonstrate they're "real" and you will never get any of them to admit that they're fake. I'm sure there are reputable dealers too though. Report this Post to the Staff
