Yeah, I have one of those replicas also. I got it as a kid in the 70s. If I recall correctly, mine does say "COPY" in barely legible letters on the edge. These things do not look as sharp as the real deal. Check out photos of real ones that can be found, for example, in Heritage's auction archives.

That is a really crappy fake, our family had a decent lead copy with a bunch of other odds and ends including a Louisiana purchase coin, the imagination of kids could really go to town if you think you have something special.....

 

I have seen coins like a 1794 FH dollar with COA (Carr) sell on ebay though it is against their rules?
