I've been offered this Fatman dollar. Its non-magnetic and weighs 24.05 grams. The face looks a bit softly struck, but that could just be the photo. What does everyone think? I know this is a popular and heavily counterfeited type.
I think there should be characters on both sides (one each) of the head. You might find these 2 Numista links handy, one referencing a genuine coin, and the other, a token: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces16006.html https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces56528.html
Hi JeffC thanks for your reply - the Gansu issue is much scarcer. This (if real) is Y329, the regular republic issue: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces3849.html
Ah, I see. Thank you. In comparing yours with the Numista link you provided, they are not the same... or am I missing something?
