Why is no not a choice?
The pictures are very blurry but chances of it being authentic are <1%.

 

I do not think that's real gold

 

sorry...it looks fake as a flake!!!! JMHO.

 

What is a "Maby"?

Chris

 

As far as I can figure out, a different choice from "Yes" but not "No"

 

I doubt it

 

There is a website called CoinQuest.com US Morman gold piece 1849 to 1860. All the ones that Mike Locke has seen are replicas.

 

It ain't real and it ain't real gold. Looks like those free ones they give away at museums.

 

copy--
guaranteed

 

If by "maby" you mean "Fake" then I vote that.

fake. real ones are so rare. that does not even look like gold. where did you get this copy ?

 

maby = NO!

 

Yeah, I'm going to go with "definitely not."

 

I cannot speak to authenticity, but the coin is of the design of a mormon gold coin.

They are listed in the RedBook, and the gold content is squirrelly with these. Authenticate it with someone knowledgeable who can look at it in-hand, then you'll know better what you have.

 

@JCain
How about a little more information from you.
Did you find it? How? Metal detecting?
Flea Market? Have you tested for gold content?
It looks fake to me. If you open up the website provided to you in an earlier post it will explain why yours could be a copy of the original.
