<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PyrotekNX, post: 131778, member: 3918&quot;]This appears to be a cast copy of a Fugio contenental dollar.&nbsp; The obverse has the casting plug visible at 3 0&#039;Clock on the obverse.&nbsp; There are also casting bubbles present.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was a very common practice to reproduce the rare coins and sell them as souvenirs back in your grandfather&#039;s day.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the 1970s, the Hobby Protection Act was enacted.&nbsp; From then on, copies of Numismatic Collectibles must be clearly marked with a copy counterstamp.&nbsp; Your coin must have been made before 1970.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I would suggest sending it to NCS or NGC to get it authenticated just in case.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
