Can someone please help me figure out what this is? It is magnetic, feels the same weight as a regular quarter, and is black in color. Is it a blank planchet? Counterfeit? Something else?, Can it possibly be American? Thanks in advance!  *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. *** |

Can you post pics of both heads and tails, and the side of the coin? Also, an actuall weight would help!

I was going to, but the other side is identical! Also, I can't get an actual weight, but according to my hand, it feels the same. Thank you for your help thus far!

Do you think it may be counterfeit? I wouldn't expect it to be magnetic. However, the weight feels correct.

Don't think its a counterfeit as it wouldn't fool anyone unless it's in a roll....
It has had the edges rounded for a reason buT I can only think it's due to aesthetics ... My best guess is this may have been a spacer placed between a table and the glass countertop....

Could it be a "knock out" from an electrical box? Is it magnetic? John1  |

So you think it's worth keeping?

It is only worth keeping if you like it.

o you think it's worth keeping? Depends on why you would want to keep it. If it's a slug it has no premium. If you think it's cool that you found it then it is worth keeping to "you" John1 |

Probably was either put there intentionally to get the required 40 coins in the roll, or was put in absentmindedly as everything "coin shaped" went into a bucket and then rolled.
Was the roll hand wrapped or machine wrapped?

The roll was machine wrapped, from Chase. If you guys say it's a slug, I won't keep it....if it's a blank planchet, that's really cool and I will! Thanks for the replies thus far.
