Magicians use these coins and pretend to bite a coin in half while actually folding the cut piece over and then right in front of your eyes wham...he will let the cut piece go and the elastic will snap it back into place while the magician pretends to blow the piece out of his mouth. The eye is too slow to catch the illusion.

I think darryldarryl is right! Interesting... Definitely looks like a bite coin by the way the cuts are curved, and what looks like elastic in the middle.

A byte is 8 bits so it would be 8 bitcoins wouldn't it?

So I have a related question; If this is in fact a magicians "coin", and not a coin that someone figured out how to pull the steel planchette out from (and subsequently epoxied back together); How is this not deemed as a counterfeit? Wouldn't owning one of these be constituted as illegal - punishable by the law (as it has been made so abundantly clear to me for my interest in THESE?

Its not a fake coin. Its the real McCoy so to speak. You can get them in quarters, loonie and toonies etc. Google search Bite Coin....not Bitcoin. :)

I love magician coins. My uncle is a magician and has so many cool things. They make all of these out of real coins so they are not counterfeit technically
To bad you took that to the bank. I bet it's worth a lot more then a buck .
I have a set of minature USA coins for tricks I found at a coin show for cheap .
I keep anything I find in my change that's odd. Why not it's only face value.

Ok, that I can see; It did appear to be the outer halves of a real loonie - I just figured that someone was experimenting, and figured out how to remove the steel planchette out of our worthless current steel coinage... I had no interest in it - I actually happened by accident to observe it in my wifes change.

This is a very cool trick if you never saw it done before.

The ones I have and had were made from real coins mine was the quarter with the center that folded out.the cigarette through the quarter trick the machining is excellent. The one in this thread definitely looks like part of a magicians prop.Learn the trick make yourself fortune and fame.
