That was going to be my answer! :goof: So now I have to say Copper Slug, since you beat me to the other one.

Ribbit

 

Widows Mite is the answer..nice try though guys.


stainless

 

Aztec?

 

What?

 

According to the label from Littleton Coin Company, I traded for it a few days ago, this was the guys only ancient


stainless

 

It does look a bit like a prutah from Alexander Jannaeus, at least on the obverse.

 

I officially dub this the worst ripoff from Littleton. Ever.

 

can you believe that he paid $25 for it? I traded him $3 in coins, just because I wanted it (obverse kinda looks neat)


stainless

 

$25 for that??

Phoenix

 

yup, $25 for a $5 coin


stainless

 

I wouldn't pay more than five CENTS for that. I'm not even convinced its a widows mite.
