I see what you did there! In all fairness though I would imagine/hope this was made in the late 1800's when these would have been quite common.
I agree. I hate to see coins defaced. I sell some coins on eBay and occasionally someone will buy some and tell me they are using them for jewelry. I almost don't want to sell them after that.
looks cool but the coin collectors of 1/4 reals are going crazy seeing this. I mean look at those early dates yikes.
