First Gold Coin

Yeah, that's not a mexican 2 peso coin, look at the detail on the wreath and no mint mark the O over the M for mexico city is missing. Some fantasy piece...
 
You May be right.

You would think the Jeweler I had that tested it would be more careful. Heck he buys gold. Maybe I should sell it to him.

Yeah, gold items usually have that loop (called a jump loop) on top soldered closed too..
 
It could be gold, but it’s definitely not a coin.
It’s a cast - you can see cast bubbles on the both sides of this piece of jewelry.

Congrats!
Gold is gold.
 
Buzz killers!! Like pulling a shiny gold ring out of the hole and upon closer examination, it's flaking off.....
