<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1316334, member: 26302"]Many were actually. KoinJester is very right. The older ones were pure gold.

Gold testing does no good if a coin is layered or plated, but a specific gravity test will tell you if its pure. FWIW I believe its a token as well, but could be gold.[/QUOTE]
