Northern Forest Archipelago is a "pint sized" micronation headed by Jaime Sheffield from his headquarters in the United States in Lake Clear, New York.  He maintains a website and I must say it is well designed and maintained.  To learn all about The Northern Forest Archipelago, simply do a search. The coin up for auction is BLACKENED NICKEL.  It is large (39 millimeters) and thick (I think it is 3 millimeters) and feels nice and heavy in the hand.  It is encapsulated .  It is VERY rare.  I obtained this duplicate from my collection directly from the King Jaime himself.  If I recall correctly, he had 50 of these minted and I doubt more than about 10 made it out of the hands of other NFA Citizens.  This is uncirculated with a beautiful finish and high relief.  The design shows King Jaime's son, Prince Ben.  The denomination is 1 NFASEB.  This is "Northern Forest Archipelago Sweat Equity Buck" and according to the website, the NFASEB has a face value of $10.00 U.S.  I'm guessing fewer than 5 are looking for homes.  I doubt you will see another on Ebay or anywhere anytime soon. The coin you see is the one you get! Place a Bid!
