    I believe it is real. It scans and weighs as real I just think it looks like road kill!

    I did not pay hardly anything for it, it is just a novelty at this point.

    Is that going into a well-matched set?

    This is the kind of thing that I collect for fun, so I dont intend to sell at least for a while.

    It is something only a mother/father could love but yeah when I first saw it my mouth dropped just a little.

    How much did you pay for it? Don't be like that "150 pennies" guy.

    I paid $50. I know...not even worth that - but I figured that is the only way I would ever own one. Not because of cost but because this is not my series and I am not willing to spend real money on something that is not in my primary area of focus.

    I'm broke right now, but I'm selling and making money. I'll give you $75 for it whenever you want to sell.

    Get it slabbed in a Genuine holder and I'd give you $250. for it.

    It is disfigured and will not fit in a slab. It would have to have the slab fitted to it.

    You can see each hammer strike. I bet this was done by a 4-year old at some point.

    It definitely has rare all over it, not many Hawaiians were destroyed like that one.
