  It's a sandwich coin. Another coin was pressed on each side of the coin. PMD

  Yep...done usually in a vise.... one clue, on this one, is that both the obverse and the reverse show the reverse of the other coins... Of course, that is not always the case on these fakes... Cheers, RickO

  I believe it to be a vise coin. Where, most likely in a garage as an experiment.
