Recent "find". Looks like br967 ns22 token made for british guiana. BUT. The obverse appears to be rotated by 45 degrees relative to the placement of the legend and objects on the reverse AND there is no bust of gorgeous george or anything else, inside the legend. its blank. have i got something not found in my catalogues or this web site? worth millions? or is it a ripoff cull of some sort?

Not an error, that part has been intentionally ground off, possibly to make a love token.
It is considered a damaged coin.
