    Looks like a Dan Carr silver medal that's been antiqued.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    I'd be curious to know what @dcarr thinks of the product from a technical standpoint. Seems pretty good but not quite as nice as his.

    That is a fairly nice silver round. I've seen that same format with other designs such as a Barber and a 1964 Kennedy:


    The details on both are a little off and/or lacking, but a decent job.

    I think they were made by the private Highland Mint.
    The Walking Liberty and Kennedy both have a "HM" mint mark similar to this:

    I doubt it. Dan never marks his work with "COPY," which is why his works generate controversy.
