Coin in the movie "The Prestige"

Looks Darkside to me... almost like a Veiled Head crown of Queen Victoria. Can anyone positively identify it?

  • hmm. I cant ID the coin, but the movie was fairly entertaining..well acted.. and Christopher Nolan spins a good yarn. Thumbs up!
  • Definitely looks like a veiled Queen Victoria to me. Would fit in with the movie that way, as well.
    If you haven't noticed, I'm single and miserable and I've got four albums of bitching about it that I would offer as proof.

    Could somebody who saw the movie please describe the setting for Nikola Tesla's laboratory? One local movie reviewer said it was high up in the Rocky Mountains, while in reality it was in the scrub desert East of Colorado Springs.
    Thanks
