    Not bad looking. The only thing is that four letter word on the reverse-COPY. It’s just a token piece, not even the correct design.

    Not at all. It even has a die crack, not a real one but it’s made for the coin on the reverse side. :)

    Not even sure where or when I got this piece.

    This came out of some random eBay lot ten years or so ago. Looks like someone tried to scratch out the COPY stamp, then someone else dropped acid onto the coin to test it. Why didn't I just toss it? I guess I was saving it for today!

    More from the same lot. I'm remembering that this was after eBay announced the policy change banning copy coins, but before they implemented it. (I was going to say "started enforcing it", but I guess we're still waiting for that.)
