Can anyone identify this silver coin? It’s slightly larger in diameter than a Lincoln Cent and a bit thinner.

Real or Fake?

Someone hated Liberty’s face. Acquired from a long-associated-with dealer with a full refund if not authentic. Sigma machine said silver and only slightly underweight. What do you think?

Sometimes it works, Sometimes it doesn’t…

This 2019 Red Grin (with a swapped band) has been my daily watch since its purchase. It never went more than a week with a dead battery, hasn’t been dropped in water or on anything other than a carpet. After its last battery change ten days ago it only works intermittently. Could the June heat have killed it? The sweat from my arm? It’s a nice watch and I’ll be sad to see it go.
