Found this in the reject tube of a coin counting machine.
just wandering who make it? Are there still many people
dreaming About CSA? We knew the kid who shot out at
the church had a picture of him holding a CSA flag.

That would be an epic reject bin find if it is made of gold and is legit. It's most likely a copy of what was made by the south in the civil war. If it's real you may have hit the jackpot.

No, it's not gold. It's a token. CSA never issued any gold coin.

Shot out at the church?

You mean the ignorant little turd who murdered 9 people?

The confederacy didn't have the gold to mint coins with. They issued script which is as worthless today as it was in the 1860's

To head it off before it happens please remember no politics....

Anyone ever here the story of the Confederate Half dollar?

"We know that the US 1861-O half dollar became the basis for an attempt to make a Confederate half dollar of which four are known to have been produced. These Confederate produced half dollars used the original obverse die and a special designed reverse. Years later a fellow by the name of Mason from Philadelphia purchased the original Confederate reverse dies from the chief coiner of the Confederacy, Dr. B.F. Taylor of New Orleans. Mason then sold the die to J.W. Scott and Company, which promptly bought 500 1861-O half dollars, shaved off the reverses, then stamped them using the Confederate die. The original Confederate half dollars are now worth hundreds of thousands of dollars while the restrikes are worth thousands.

Just to make matters even more interesting, the known original four Confederate half dollars exhibit a die break from the bridge of the nose to the rim passing close to star seven. While in theory we cannot say with certainty that any specific coin was struck by any particular group, it seems likely that any 1861-O exhibiting this particular die break is an original Confederate product."
