No. Not VF or XF, by a long shot. (You've also got some scratches on the reverse.) Hang on a sec- I'll go dig up Photograde for you...
Terrific portrait in that OP coin! Really crisp detail. Looks like pretty nice surfaces, too.
I tend to agree with Colton. It's a rather absurd piece of modern NCLT to me, made to cash in on American pop culture, like so much NCLT is. But...
I wouldn't be so sure that was counterfeit, since I believe the originals were made under pretty primitive wartime conditions, in a pretty chaotic...
The toning in this case is secondary toning, not original toning. The coin was cleaned (polished), and developed that iridescence as a result....
It does not appear to be one of the gold-plated quarters. I used to sell those. It's just toned.
PS- I am a member of the Love Token Society. It's the only specialized numismatic organization that I, an eclectic "jack of all trades"...
As I mentioned via PM: That's a great love token for a measly fifteen bucks, which, as I mentioned, is about what you'd pay for a run-of-the-mill...
I will add that I just bought this. Its my second of this type, but an upgrade to the one I used to have in my Box of 20. These are common but...

This is both fascinating and, I must confess, rather bewildering to me, because, even rendered in perfect English, this information is hard for me...
It appears to have been whizzed, which makes it look strange to those with a more seasoned eye, but which can certainly slip past the uninitiated...
What the last three said!
That is a regular copper-nickel alloy "clad" quarter with some nice toning. Probably heat-induced. Not worth anything, of course (well, OK, a...
Dang, I want a coin from Tityassos now. Oh, and as far as sophomoric humor involving coins goes, I've "been there, done that".
Yes. The scientific name of the American robin is Turdus migratorius. Look it up. I did not make that one up, but LOL-ed when I saw it the...
Post a coin from your father's birth year, if you're so inclined. [IMG]
Awww, so keep lookin'! :D Not for gold pennies - ain't no such thing. (*Well, there are five known, but they're Indian Heads.) So you haven't...
Separate names with a comma.
