<p>[QUOTE="Kazmer81, post: 1084910, member: 28885"]If that's the case, it doesn't explain why I found it where I did. I mean, this place is in the deep woods, and next to an old foundation for a cabin. I don't know... I'm not trying to make this seem like something it's not. It's a very interesting scenario to me. So lets say it's a replica made for jewelry. If so, then why such a crude bezel? The bezel serves more of a function of being able to wear the coin on a necklace, rather than simply trying to look pretty. It doesn't make sense to me. Also, I don't see why anyone would be wearing jewelry in such a location. And if it were jewelry, it had to have been from a long time ago because it was under a very large rock (that weighed about 15 pounds) on the edge of the creek. The creek during early spring is more like a river and the rock that the coin was found under would be completely under water during the spring. <b>My other question is about the stamps on the neck of King George. What do they represent or what are they for?</b></p><p> </p><p>Has anyone seen a fake like this before? This year and this mint?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
