pyrbob Rest in Peace United States 1943 Posts	Posted 04/29/2012 5:15 pm From what I see in the pics your coin is not a coin. There were no half dollars made the size of a dime. Your piece was probably used on a piece of jewelry. Just a guess. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16826 Posts	Posted 04/29/2012 6:28 pm Yes, the US mints have made coins for other countries in the past. No, this isn't one of them. Given the reduction in size, I'd assume it was play money. But given that the other side is blank, it's likely it's an imitation coin intended for being mounted into something, like a piece of jewellery, a book or a piece of furniture. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
