Talking I'm probably rich...

Found this in a local park about 2" deep. I figure it is real rare and worth about a zillion dollars

Anybody know what it really is??

I think you are correct. It should be worth about a zillion dollars. Either that or it is a thingamajig.
It is nice whatever it is.
If that was there perhaps there are some foreign coins nearby.
Good luck

Ok now that I know what we have here, thanks Skinnybones, I looked up a conversion and figure this bad boy must be worth about 2 cents American.

So being as I am not rich guess I better go MDing and find something more valuable.

What the heck, put it in the mail for me and I will send you a check for 20 grand.
But you pay for the postage and insurance.
