[QUOTE="Michael K, post: 3036450, member: 78298"]Lets see the reverse. If it's real too bad about the damage. Those 18th century coins are great. Damage: the hole that has been plugged. The heavy chunk rim ding at 4 o'clock. The scratches across the portrait. Someone most likely scrubbed this with something abrasive. It may have shined up, but it ruins the coin. The hole makes me think this was on a chain at one point, but the location of the hole doesn't make sense. The hole would be at 12 o'clock if you wanted to orient the portrait correctly when wearing it.[/QUOTE]
