<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Pirate, post: 2749010, member: 87662&quot;]Thanks Doug. My very first impression on unearthing this coin was that it was a forgery due to the silver plating. Though it is quite possibly more likely a forgery than not, after much research I guess there could be all sorts of reasons to officially mint fourrees, such as if there was a silver shortage or/and a shortage of small change, like an emergency issue, who knows! I never thought of the political possibilities. Either way it is a rather old curio.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
