I'm unsure of it's history, and as I've never handled one before, I'm none too sure if it's genuine. 18mm x 1mm Weight unknown, but feels too light. And that's the problem, it doesn't feel right. Any suggestions Report this Post to the Staff

The design on these are incuse, which means that it is below the actual surface, basically the opposite of a 1921 Peace dollar. Report this Post to the Staff
