Doogie309 New Member United States 16 Posts	Posted 09/06/2018 4:17 pm I got this quarter back at the store some years back. It was rattling around in my hand and I noticed how loose it was. It only weighs 4.7 grams. * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/06/2018 5:27 pm Fun thing, but can't imagine what purpose (deceptive or otherwise) it might have had. Report this Post to the Staff
Doogie309 New Member United States 16 Posts	Posted 09/06/2018 7:53 pm I know. It's really weird. It didn't come apart like that until I got to looking at it. Before that it was intact...but loose. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34448 Posts	Posted 09/06/2018 8:25 pm Not the Magician's coin that we normally see where there are two heads or two tales or even two denominations. Rather, I think that it might be use in a Magician's coin piercing trick, such as this one: https://abbottmagic.com/Cigarette-T...CIGTHRH1.htm "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
