HOLY SMOKES!! This is a HUGE, HEAVY coin if I ever seen one!
I have only found this style coin before.. in the form of a FAKE, PHONY, COUNTERFEIT, FRAUDULENT, CHEAP paper laminated PROXY coin, and boy was I disappointed.
So you can imagine how thrilled I am to get THE REAL THING this time! Mr. CoastieMike you are one swell dude to share this beauty with all of us. And I feel sorry that it went missing for 4 YEARS... But glad that it strangely resurfaced out of nowhere.
This coin definitely deserves to have photos posted on this page so anyone who visits can see how awesome it is. I will try to do so when I drop it off via my iPhone.
It came from GeoWoodStock in St Louis and now it's in Wisconsin and I'll move it along.
