I know its a counterfeit but in comparison to modern issues its much more interesting to me.
Someone went to a lot of trouble to make it.
Who ?
Where ?
Nobody will ever know - that's why I like it.

Ch Unc Easy peasy Mate, I consider the obverse of this coin to actually be better than the reverse. Stunning coin Mate Drooling

I just checked out an MS64 example that sold for $12000 in a Pacific Rim auction last year and mine is way better.Slabbing this one is probably the way to go
