@BL, these certainly are interesting conversation pieces, but I'm thinking that there isn't much in terms of numismatic value.

The OP coin is not a repousse coin. On a repousse coin the reverse die is in the shape of the obverse image and impresses the metal into an incuse obverse die of the design. On the OP coin the reverse die appears to be either flat or a simple curve not a raised image of the Shriner design.

Conder101 -- thanks for the correction. I just wasn't paying attention.
