Don and Ryan are correct. The coin is a make-believe "Bitcoin," not worth a kilodollar but a gag item. They are good for "photos of Bitcoins" published in some recent magazines for articles about the virtual currency. I saw a whole bunch of them offered for sale, at the Sacramento Swap Meet, I think it was, a couple of months back. The seller didn't quote a price but suggested I could buy one or all of them for real cheap. He just smiled when I asked, "Is it worth a Bitcoin?" Not sure of metal composition, brass with golden coating perhaps, felt heavier than a mere aluminum token. Somebody out there in Bitcoinia is manufacturing them by the box full. It might still be of some value as a joke item. I can see, for example, some magician perform "The Vanishing Bitcoin" trick and then lamenting he "lost a fortune."
