A little closer view would help? My binoculars are out in the pickup.

I looked at one like that at a coin shop and India is what the dealer said it was I think. They were wanting something like 29 bucks for it. I didn't buy it, but I did give thought of turning it into a piece of jewelry using one of the gold chains I have and then listing it on eBay for more than the scrap value. I'd first take it to a pawn shop and have them test the purity of it. I'm not sure those are pure gold or not, but you should at least know that.

Every time I look at gold, "I feel a stirring in the Force". Nice post, I enjoyed it and the comments, very informative. Thanks all.

Any spot price gold is a good deal. Maybe $10-$40 a coin
