coincollector123 Pillar of the Community United States 850 Posts	Posted 05/31/2010 2:54 pm i know that but it is made with gold dust. My grandmother had it so I think it is real but I could always be wrong. Report this Post to the Staff
PFCBEGA New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 05/31/2010 2:55 pm Looks like we posted at the same time, My gut instinct says that the coin is not authentic, the color is wrong and so is detail of the design elements, also the coin appears to be grainy on the surface which suggests a cast counterfeit. In my professional opinion it is not authentic. Report this Post to the Staff

Worth about $2-$3. Real Morman $5 gold coins are worth thousands even in low grade. Very scarce type. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
