[QUOTE="dcarr, post: 147781, member: 4781"]Absolutely. This is a genuine coin that has been cut apart and then put back together again with the reverse rotated in relation to the front. And that is why it doesn't have the same ring as a normal coin (because the internal structure has been disturbed). Now the question is why would anyone do this. I can think of a couple possibilities. 1. Someone who was making two-headed novelties made an error and disposed of their mistake by spending it. 2. If the coin is lighter than normal, perhaps there is a hidden cavity inside for smuggling ?[/QUOTE]
