    We have a conclusion!
    First off, thank you all for your contributions. It's super helpful having a community like this to share knowledge. Sorry if I missed anyone! 
    I took the coins back to the dealer today who was actually very good about it. Conclusion was; 
    1915 - good! It's tests as 22ct, which is consistent with the suggested findings from the specific gravity test. It's weight is also good. Per the consensus on this thread, it appears it may have a mint error mark. The dealer had no concerns with it. 
    1903 - not good! The chap barely had it in his hand a few seconds before scowling, apologising and saying it shouldn't have been sold. He didn't give much more information than that, but it's going for melt and I took another half home as a replacement (which weighs and measures good). 
    p.s. If anyone tells me the below is a fake I may have a heart attack 😨😂

    A wise old man once said... "use your melon!" 😄
    I'd guess it's one of two things.
    (1) A scam to get your money with no intention of ever giving you anything. 
    (2) They intend to gamble peoples money on high risk investments for the next 2 years to try and make a big profit. If they manage to double up, they'll give people their effective return of 18% in 2 years and pocket the rest. If they don't manage to make a profit (more likely), they'll close down this pop-up company and you'll take 100% of the loss.
