    I cant find anything on the internet on this token. Granny had it labeled as a 1856 Californian gold token. 20190826_152812.jpg 20190826_152749.jpg

    It's certainly not the real thing.

    A jeweler verified its real gold, but if they were trying to imitate the 1/4th piece, how come they didnt add that to the middle of reverse, instead of "califorina" across the top? It was labeled tho as a "token", and not a coin.

    Some sort of imitation made for the jewelry trade?
