100th pint of blood donated 7/19/2022 . Transactions with WilliamF, Relaxn, LukeMarshal, jclovescoins, braddick, JWP, Weather11am, Fairlaneman, Dscoins, lordmarcovan, Collectorcoins, SurfinxHI, JimW.

When I first saw it I thought it might be an altered date since the first 9 looked different from the second 9 in the date but then I quickly realized the whole coin was fake and a really bad one at that. The reverse is particularly bad. I wonder if they used real gold to make it.

Just looking at the date and nothing else, it is way too big….
Yes - date is a give away - plus the weakness of strike right next to the highly detailed areas of the strike is a red flag.

I hope this was simply a rhetorical thread...

There is a story in today's news about Saudi Arabians handing out fake fur coats to American politicians.
A "22-karat gold coin" is also involved.
