Hi all,

Found this penny and not sure if it's even real. It has the Lincoln head on one side and the other side is blank. However, it's like a shell of a penny and is very light. Attached are a couple of pictures. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan

Common magic coin. Used to make a Dime vanish and be replaced by a Cent. Odd you found it since they cost about $10 at a magic store so the person that lost it, is now out of a trick. You can fit a Dime in the hollowed out and tell people you now can make a Dime vanish by showing them the Dime then in your closed hand, simply turn over.

Thanks Carl! My mom gave me a piggy bank full of dimes and it was in there with a dime inside. Thanks for your help!
