Found: counterfeit Chinese Walker. 0

[RCBEGA]

I found this "Walker" years ago in a miscellaneous purchase. The obverse is very flat but the reverse is sharp and far too detailed! 

This coin is a Chinese counterfeit made out of base metals which upon first glance looks silver. Most likely made with laser engraved dies. 

NGC did a fantastic write up here:

Thank you for sharing.

Your counterfeit is not the same type as the ones in the NGC write-up.

That thing so fake ! On heavy drinking night with one eye barely open I’d be able to spot that fake all the way across other side of the room. I’ve seen little kids draw better than that
