    Picked this one up as a well worn genuine coin, but once in hand matched it to Kleeberg 88C. An exciting find for me, as I'm very interested in contemporary counterfeits and this is only the second of the Kleeberg listed pieces I've ever owned.

    As some of you might guess, it's not actually heavily worn. They were made to look weak/worn so that they would more easily pass as genuine coins in circulation.
