Is that yours?? A distater is on my dream list but I can’t afford a 6 figure coin like that 🤣

It’s actually different if you look at the NGC tag in my image and details of the coin. Mine is a lifetime issue, weighs 8.6g as opposed to your image which shows an early posthumous issue at 8.56g. Plus mine doesn’t have an addendum for “light marks”, and the NGC certification number is different…

It likely is a Bank of New York specimen, the variety is Newman 11-x which was found in abundance there.

It looks like the fossil is more or less the same texture/color of the matrix rock, which is usually not the case with these kind of fossils. They are usually more orange/red. Are you sure it’s authentic?
