   Obviously a tooled piece, however, was it a one of a kind or have more been seen like this? Quite a bit of work there... Cheers, RickO

   I am sure it was meant to be carries, but what functions the numbers performed escapes me. And why the blank space?

   Pretty cool. A good addition to a set of Trade Dollar oddities along with the potty dollars, box dollars, opium dollars etc.

   The underlying digits that get displayed in the round window must be on a rotating disc inside the coin. It's been halved and this disc inserted? bob
