[QUOTE="foundinrolls, post: 664785, member: 4350"]What weight did you get? It has to be weighed to 1/100th of a gram to be accurate. The machining done to create these is really quite amazing. Your coin, as seen in the pictures, also has scrape marks all going in the same direction. Also, the rim is not raised on what should have been the reverse, which also means it had to be machined to be flat. A split planchet is ruled out due to the flat rim and what is say is a close to original weight. There is no other possibility. Thanks, Bill[/QUOTE]
