Hello, :icon_sunny:
I bought this coin on EBay. I took it to my local coin store, They first told me it might be a so called Dollar, i gave them my number while they look in to it. i got a call today and he said that's its not a so called dollar its a KKK coin. Ive found some KKK coins on here but none like this.
Just Wondering if anyone has a idea about it please let me know

on the back it says "GOD BLASS AMERICA"
at the bottom of the anchors it has LDO and CWO
it has some good wear marks on it
coin or medal measures 1.50in
Thanks Jeremy

LDO CWO stands for Limited Duty Officer/Chief Warrant Officer and that is a navy anchor , dont think it has anything to do with KKK.

Fantasy or counterfeit coins produced by another country, like China? I found several different examples of them on various coin forums and they all pretty much say the same thing.

That's what got me interested in it was the misspelling. My guess would be that they do it to get people "like me" to buy their crap. its weird that i don't see any up for sale, the coin i got has some wear to it which means someone carried it and thought it was of value. I have no idea the coin guy seam to be set on it being a secret KKK medal maybe he will buy it off me lol jk
yeah mack thats where i got it

Funny one about misspellings, I have a AF challenge coin from our Intel section and the phrase "Quiet Professionals" they spelt as Profesionals (left the second S out). Needless to say there were a bunch of "Lack of Intelligence in Intel" jokes going around!
