You've all done "Guess the grade" and "Guess the Slab", now Guess the coin

I saw this and realized I needed one of these in my set of______.
Anybody here know what it is?
1872 "Seated Quarter"


I'll tell you all later if no one guesses.

    A well worn silver coin with Queen Victoria on it.

    Blurry coin photos?
    Victorian-era coat buttons?
    Coins that need cleaning?
    Yukon Territory beaver pelt tax tokens?

    Seriously, it does look vaguely familiar, but I can't place it.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    I don't know what you expect from a coin that old.

    It is a Pangea 3 Blupta depicting the country as it looked on the globe when Africa had not yet separated from Europe and the Americas.

    A very astute purchase.
