jgfindring Rest in Peace United States 1380 Posts	Posted 09/07/2011 5:16 pm It's from an alternate universe where America never gained its independence and we still had George VI as our king in 1945? Report this Post to the Staff

JackB Pillar of the Community United States 1064 Posts	Posted 09/07/2011 7:48 pm It's a mule, isn't it? Report this Post to the Staff
Hambone Pillar of the Community United States 609 Posts	Posted 09/07/2011 9:13 pm Sorry coop, I just thought it might be down. Dont want to be annoying Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/08/2011 4:03 pm Can't be a mule if the one side is silver and the other side is copper and from two different Countries. An altered coin. Report this Post to the Staff
matchbox Pillar of the Community United States 1007 Posts	Posted 09/08/2011 7:43 pm Well of course. That's the hybrid Walking King 50 Cents-Pence silver/copper coin. Minted a few in 1944/1945 just in case the USA / UK lost WWII and became one country. It was a strange time in history. Report this Post to the Staff

CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 09/08/2011 8:58 pm I did just find one of those huge pennies in a roll of halves. The size match is a remarkable coincidence. Report this Post to the Staff
hopping_rabbit Valued Member Canada 235 Posts	Posted 09/08/2011 9:44 pm Thats hilarious. Report this Post to the Staff
west- canuk Valued Member Canada 497 Posts	Posted 09/08/2011 10:26 pm Of course this coin was the test piece precursor to the Kennedy silver clad copper half. Every once in a while HK Replica in China puts a few of these on the auction block. Report this Post to the Staff
chris beatie Valued Member 344 Posts	Posted 09/21/2011 03:45 am 45 for that coin is a steal! Id think its worth over 9000. Report this Post to the Staff
BJ Neff Pillar of the Community United States 526 Posts	Posted 09/21/2011 08:48 am More than likely it is a "magicians" coin. I have seen similar coins that have been hallowed out and another denominational coin made to fit in the space that had been milled out. BJ Neff Report this Post to the Staff
ilikeikes Pillar of the Community United States 1205 Posts	Posted 09/21/2011 3:39 pm I call these DONKEYS...not Mules! Cal Report this Post to the Staff
Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 09/22/2011 1:53 pm I see they hollowed out the silver. Kind of a waste. Not a bad job overall though. If that is/was a genuine walker half what would be the denom. of the GB coin ? Looks too small for a one penny. Report this Post to the Staff
