<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Randy Abercrombie, post: 3295553, member: 92655&quot;]Well then.... See if I can make sense here. Based on the size, yes it appears that it is sized to be a 2 1/2 dollar gold coin. Now, look at the photo below. The coin on the left is a “classic head” design. That’s what I am seeing on your piece. The coin on the right is a “Liberty head” design. The Liberty head is the design that the mint was using in 1842..... Secondly, gold usually does not corrode like your piece exhibits. It isn’t unheard of, but is very unusual to see gold corrode like that....... I think what you have is interesting to be sure. But I am fairly certain it is not gold or a US coin. I believe it is something created by a jeweler to adorn a jewelry item or something like that.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]872262[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
