I'm not sure what to think of this but I picked it up off ebay for 5 bucks. It was listed as a Jefferson nickel guitar pick, I think I can rule that out. I don't Believe it came from the Mint this way but what if it did? That would be nice but highly unlikely. Is it an attempt of a cast copy or what?
Any input appreciated.

Looks like it may have been made with a few nickels, glued or soldered together.

I thought this one was neat. I saved this image a couples of years ago.

Even though it was listed as a guitar pick I'm sure it was never intended for that use.Any other Ideas out there

I would never use a silver pick like that. Plastic is great enough for me. I had a platinum one once. The grandson took and I've never found it again.

I notice the guy who bought it is an error hunter, maybe it'll end up posted here.
