Judging from what I've read on this forum and others, I imagine this is a replica, but I thought I'd ask for more confirmation. Maybe it's from the 1876 centennial, or the more recent bicentennial? Are there are clear cut marks that would distinguish it as a copy? (other than having 'copy' on it somewhere, which I didn't see)
One side has the following on it:
"Continental Curency 1776" around the edge
then "fugio" inside two concentric circles, and then a sundial inside and "mind your business" below the dial. The "mind your business" is nearly illegible.
On the reverse side there are 13 rings representing the colonies then inside we have "we are one," and then something illegible outside that...which reads "congress..." something.
I attached a few pictures. Thanks very much for any help.
