John Serra New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 09/04/2022 5:02 pm Yes it is a " Magic Coin"! It is a Dime on the inside and can be switched to look like a half penny Half Dime! I will post pictures as soon as I can get the darn thing open again! Lol! It won't open now and I don't want to scratch it, going to get an Exacto knife later today and open it. Thanks everyone for your help, and for the Welcome. Report this Post to the Staff
