I hope you didn't pay much, because this coin is a cast counterfeit. It has all the signs. The only question is: Is it a genuine C/S on a fake...
It shows in the legends beneath the lion.
A most unusual piece indeed. I find it odd that a merchant would stamp another merchant's advertising coin and leave the original stamp. That...
Well, there is a special service for unusually large or odd shaped coins. They do get slabbed, it just costs more. Personally I don't slab coins...
It's kind of odd that there are repeats of some stamps on both sides. Also that it has the same amount of stamps on both sides. Typically they...

This effect happens when part of the first strike's details are overlapped by a flat field on the die in the second strike. The same is observable...
Well if they were die chips they should not affect the weight. I wish the pictures were more close-up because the lumps could be casting defects....
Unfortunately the flat shelving says MD.
Yea, the way in which the letters and date on the portrait side are partially obliterated is commonly seen on multiple strike or overstrike coins.
At least the troll is gone! Funny how predictable they are though. =)
So the first time someone sells a new type of item it means their account has been taken over? What an odd assumption.
