that looks to be tin; which would melt under a welding flame... solder maybe, but again I would think that might be too much heat for the tin coin...
maybe it's silver?

This has become very silly, and extremely enjoyable because of that. But now I really need to know why, or I won't sleep.
Then my wife will beat me.
TELL US WHY?

Made a troll post with them and then ignored the whole thread? Sounds pretty terrible to me...

It is fairly common to find coins from this part of the world (southeast asia) welded or soldered together into jewellery. I assume that is what has happened in this case.
