<p>[QUOTE="Weston, post: 1850969, member: 58878"]Thanks for looking everyone! Glad to see there is interest. It is a true conversation piece. I agree with those who say it would take a hardened steel die to create the amount of detail in the coin. Saying that, and seeing the patina on the coin would lead me to believe this is a genuine error coin. For someone to make this, it would require thousands of pounds of pressure. If that machinery was available to a counterfeiter, they would have done a much better job.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
