Is this real or fake?

My friend gave me this because he owed me money. A neighbor said it was fake. I don't believe him. It doesn't say "copy" on either side.

Don't give me a wiseacre answer. If you think it's fake tell me why, cite an authority, and tell me who made it, why, and when.

What do you think it will grade? What is it worth? And no, it is NOT for sale. So don't ask to buy it.

This is absolutely genuine. Even a lithograph of your "coin" is selling for $99.00!

value between 175.00 and 400.00

Well I guess that proves that it's real! I guess it would grade PN99.... That stands for pretty nice $99

Ok Lance you got me. I did see that post but didn't make the connection. Whew! I thought one of us had started smoking crack. (and it wasn't me this time) ;-)

 

But your wooden nickel doesn't have a casting seam, does it?

 

It's a limited edition lithograph (seriograph) by Stuart Moskowitz.

 

Just because there asking $99 doesn't mean its worth $99. I can ask $1,000 for a pencil but that doesnt mean it is worth it.

 

Nah, yours is fake. It does not have the proof of authenticity stamped into it, "HONG KONG".

Sorry couldn't resist.

 

You could say that it's a unique pencil, and ask for $10,000,000 -cough- -cough- :foot-mouth:
