<p>[QUOTE="Robert lyons, post: 3250587, member: 99629"]I took the coin to an assay office and the coin is made out 54% zn, 34% cu, 10% sn and misc 2%. This is off of a big machine and not a handheld. I showed the coin to an expert and he tells me that the coin is not plated and that it was struck and not cast. He was not familiar with any prototypes from that year. So the question I ask all of you is whether anyone is familiar with a prototype from that year or this coin itself.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
