Real, counterfeit, replica, or restrike?

  1. I just came across this 1881 1/4 California Gold Token and I do not believe that it is totally authentic.

    Can someone please let me know any details about this coin?

    Thanks a lot! IMG_20190614_152511.jpg IMG_20190614_152505.jpg

    That's not real.
     
  4. Any more info on it? What are the signs to look for to know that it's fake?

    Looks like a toy token. It's a replica.

    Real ones will have a denomination D, Dol, Dollar. The fractions does not count as a denomination.

    Interesting, the MS 64 pieces they show are real, the MS-65 is a fake and from a different rev die.
