What you has are tokens. Yes sometime for an event or such they used the real coin to transform in token. The Token forum can tell you more for them then here.

Me I have more then 500 pcs. and I just come in transaction with one of the bigger collector of. Some are very nice events pieces. Yours me personally I like.

Agreed, these are not coins but tokens.
The middle one depicts Macculloch Hall, which is near Washington's Headquarters on Morris Rd. in Morristown New Jersey.

They're counterstamped in such a way that the entire reverse is replaced. How do the obverses look, slr27em?

Hi all & thank you for the welcome.

Here are pictures of the obverse - quite a bit of damage resulted.

Any idea value on these as I could not find any comps anywhere. I see mostly elongated versions.
