DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 10/05/2014 1:06 pm All the "coins" are described as 15mm in diameter. First time I've seen these...they might be fun to own for a couple bucks, but no more. Google badly translated the eBay auction Here for sale are four silver coins of fine silver. These are new bullion coins, once the One Cent piece with Indian head three times and Morgan dollars, all of 999.9 fine silver. The coins are each 1 gram heavy and have a diameter of about 1.5 cm. Please check the state you see from the pictures, in my opinion, top, no scratches etc. You are bidding on all 4 coins. Report this Post to the Staff

jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4691 Posts	Posted 10/13/2014 11:37 am This reminds me of some novelty "coins" during the Nixon administration when inflation was sky high. Teeny-tiny novelty issues that resembled coins at the time. Anyone else remember these? There were also real currency that was shrunk down to about 30% of size through some process I don't recall. As far as these novelty pieces, why waste even a few bucks, they will just get thrown into a junk drawer with future head shaking. Report this Post to the Staff
