There is a discussion on another forum.org whether it is a genuine coin or an artificially weathered reproduction coin.

If I were him, I WOULDN'T sell it.
I have a feeling its a fake and the "I dont know that it is, see for yourself" act might go on and he'd expect it to go HIGH.

TKC!

Alarm bells ring when I see private auctions
there is no returns policy
He is charging $10 for a single coin/token to ship and insure which means he had a fair idea about how much it was worth.
It may be legit but I would not bid even if I had the money.

Looks like to me someone thinks it is very real! Twenty bids and the current winning bid is in the thousands?

I'd sure feel sorry for the guy (if it's not the seller) who will spend over $10,000 for it.
