Got this in my change at Panera Bread. Wheat is a 1929S. Looks like the cent was glued inside the nickle.
(sorry for crappy pics)

It was given back as a nickel. A spy coin, hadn't thought about that, hmmm. The glue makes me think it wasn't suppose to come apart. If I could get all that glue out I'm sure the cent would fit back in all the way flush. It won't go back in flush as of now. I think I'll drop them in some boiling water and see what that does. Good idea?

Acetone will likely remove the glue of the water does not. Great find!

Keep it away from water. Water and copper are not friends.

If you've already given it a bath, give it an acetone soak to get rid of the water.

Nice find. Enjoy.
