[QUOTE="Nap, post: 3099124, member: 73099"]Looks like an Ashmore forgery. Trevor Ashmore was a prolific counterfeiter of English coins in the 1960s. His coins have this "look". I have not investigated whether this one matches any of his known dies, but I am also of the opinion that it is not genuine. Since the coins were produced in the 1960s, it is completely plausible that you acquired it in 1970. It doesn't make it any more real though. Some people collect these but they don't have much value, maybe $10 or so.[/QUOTE]
