    I bought this coin the other day, I'm not sure if it's real the reverse side has no design. Theres signs of a reverse design on it at all IMG_1073.JPG IMG_1073.JPG IMG_1073.JPG IMG_1075.JPG IMG_1073.JPG IMG_1075.JPG

    That is a replica of a US half cent.

    Not sure why the reverse is blank, but it's not a real coin unfortunately

    Looks like it might be a gaming token, but it's not a real half dollar.

    I've seen these before and owned a few. Supposed to be a 1809 key date large cent. Its a reproduction but they tend to sell for $25-$50.

    I figured it was a fake after I got a closer look at it
