I help with estate sales and ran across this odd item. I am at my wits end to find out who made it and what is it.

I have never seen a real coin like that. I can't find one anywhere on line. I am guessing a novelty item and not a gold coin

No date either. If you have a gram scale you could weigh the coin and see if it is 1/20th of an oz of gold.

It's not going to be a coin because it's very clearly gold plated lacking the sharpness of a struck coin.

Well, it's just before noon here and I've learned my first new thing for the day: Beaver Money. (a/k/a: Beaver Coins)
Thanks!

And not to be outdone, Australia seems to have some platypus money.
