It says coin value is 0. But doesn't list it as fake

I assume so, and they just copied another listing, but it's deceptive.

Hardly deceptive, it's an obvious fake. Looks like a novelty coin.

It's a beverage coaster, it's about 3.5 - 4 inches in diameter. Seen them many times before,

plus the listing says it has no "money" value.

The description is funny [red emphasis added]

Quote:
This is a Large Cent coin, specifically a Braided Hair variety dated 1856 from the United States. It features a Large Date and holds no monetary value.

I have this coaster as well. It came in a set of 5. An 1877 IH, a 1913 Buffalo, a Washington quarter of some date (I just don't remember the date), a 1916 Mercury and a 1907 Saint-Gaudens. I see these for sale on ebay once in a while kind of posing as a real coin.
