...what the heck are they?

They are a method for separating some people from their real money.

Can you get some close-ups? Some of those look like mini error coins.

P.S. I saw some at a show and bought sets for my nieces and nephew.

Man, I had no idea inflation was this bad.


Ok, I can't make a post like this and not inject my own humor.

"I'm sorry, sir. We don't take Canadian coins here."



(Profuse apologies in advance. My taste-o-meter said not to post this but my wine-o-meter disagreed.)

I'd actually like to get something like that under magnification, and present it here as a full-size coin. Keep in mind, the great images you see folks posting here are downsized to one-quarter of original just to be small enough to post. Making one of those into an apparent Crown is easy.

Are the edges rounded like a Dryer Coin? They could have shrunk from too much heat. "Honey, I shrunk the coins"
