That's an interesting one but, yeah, two coins were joined together to create that. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Half coin silver and half copper. I think that most folks would consider this a keeper, even though the value is only a buck or two. Yours is a little more interesting in that the coins are both fairly old.

It's a Magician's coin used for tricks. It's a man-made coin. 100% altered. Errers and Varietys.

If you have a loupe, look carefully around the edge, and on each side right up against the edge. There will be a seam at one of those locations. Looks pretty well aged, so wear may have blended the seam in some areas, but you find a seam.
Was it given to you as a cent or a dime when you got it as change? You either made 9¢ or lost 9¢. :)

Whatever it be, it is 1000% PMD and altered. No possible way for it to be an error. |

to CCF ! It is like taking a thin slice of white bread and a thin slice of rye bread and laying one on top of another. Get a round cookie cutter and cut out the center. Two halves of two coins glued together to do a parlor trick. Edited by TNG

I recently posted a two headed nickel that I found. Follow the link and look closely at the second (2007) photo and you can see where the 2006 had the back cut out the 2007 slid inside of it. http://goccf.com/t/292405 |

It's actually esier to see ( PMD)here because the cent diameter is smaller then a regular cent to make it match the diameter of the dime |
