i am curious if there is a specific name or category for coins or medals etc that use an existing coin as the flan / planchet?

a few monthes back I came across (found it in a random bulk ebay lot that I had purchased) this fraternity coin that had been "minted" using an IHC as the flan:

Coins/Medals-That-Used-Old-Pennies-As-The-Flan

Coins/Medals-That-Used-Old-Pennies-As-The-Flan

now I have come across this one (just bought it on ebay):

Coins/Medals-That-Used-Old-Pennies-As-The-Flan

Coins/Medals-That-Used-Old-Pennies-As-The-Flan

i also remember seeing one other similiar fraternity type weeks ago ( ebay), as well as this one:

Coins/Medals-That-Used-Old-Pennies-As-The-Flan

Coins/Medals-That-Used-Old-Pennies-As-The-Flan

the gun one is still up on ebay, not really of interest (just too modern) but it is in similiar style to the others, question is what are these called?
