Haha. Funny story about that coin. When I was a kid, a short time after my dad had gotten me interested in coins, I found TWO of them in a drawer in our house! After a little research we found out they were restrikes... And I thought I had found a fortune Had I known as much about coins as I know now, I would have immediately recognized that ours are not gold.
My local paper had a small article (complete with photo!) about this. First time I can recall it ever noting any numismatic news.
