    I thought Cribbage Board at first but there are no holes to put a peg or pin in.

    The dots are just black marks

    No wood base, just pure copper.

    Maybe a pattern printing plate?

    The design is the same so it must be Cribbage, however the one I have can't be played as there are no holes.

    Very odd

    Hollyblue is probably correct on the printing plate, davey. It could have been used to print the dots on the board and/or instruction sheet (well, probably the board...that'd be a huge instruction sheet!).

    (They may have wanted a dark circle around where the pegs would go so they would be easier to see, and give it a more finished look.)

    I made this one using a paper pattern.

    Ya, it could have been used to print off the template for a DIY kit, for sure.
