chrycopaul,Regarding the milled coins, I have one with both sides. Apparently this is how you make a two headed coin. I understand a good machinist could make one in an hour or so.

There is a guy somewhere in the USA that makes a replica mule like the authentic Sacagawea/Washington coin that was made a few years ago. He machines a Sacagawea and a Washington quarter so they will press fit together. Has anyone seen these?

I thought this thread was going to be:

Life is like a roll of coins - tightly packed & crimped on the ends.
