Description

The listing, *~Odd/ Strange Coin has ended.

OK i don't know much about this ODD coin, though i am guessing it is some sort of replica???? Only because it has some words on it. My g/f found it at her part-time evening job and brought it to me. Coin has a bit of weight to it, It has an OLD vintage ancient look to it. Guessing size is about the size of the kennedy coin or a bit larger. Has letters and numbers on it, also says pieces of eight. and Read something can't make it out. Also some more writing on the other side, but it is too tiny to see it. figured i would list it here incase someone would want it. FREE shipping USA. thank you

Do you know what it's made out of? Does it stick to a magnet? Thank you.

without straining my eyes and getting a massive headache, the only thing i can see is one side Read on top with something underneath it, P, 8, V might be an R attached to the V, under that PLV, SVL, TPA and under that V looks like another R attached to it, 9i, P and under that pieces of eight, it also has something around the coin on this side, what i can make out is EL PERV and the rest i can't make out. Now on the other side of the coin it has symbols, something in the middle very tiny and i think that says REPRODUCTION, the #16 is on the coin, and CAROIVS or CAROINS, the rest i can't make out at all.

If a magnet does not stick to it then it would be aluminum.

Could be a Spanish Doubloon even if it is a reproduction sounds cool.

thank you for all the bids everyone. Ok i looked ar the ebay link you sent Bubba, quite a bit of the writing is the same, however mine isn't cut down as much, also i don't see sterling anywhere, plus there is a couple of differences in the coin as well as some more writing,esp around the coin. Interesting though. Thanks for sharing the link. :)
