So, I found this 1873 1 peso gold coin at an estate sale and was wondering if it is worth sending to NGC to be graded, or is it a possible fake?
Its got some damage on the letters and numbers. I did quick research and found its a second republic gold coin with a weight of 1.692 and fineness of 0.875.
I have an old school scale and it weighed 1.7g. (my scale only goes to 0.05 accuracy) So, I did take it to the local coin shop and they said it was a "weird purity" and they machine that they had did not test 21k
The NGC site says that only 1,221 were minted. Thanks in advance.

I appreciate all for the replies. I can see how this could have been from a piece off of jewelry and was damaged badly
I may ask around at another dealer to get 1 more opinion.
Good day.
