The small beads are real, which is why this is interesting as it has both small and large bead coins in a mint set slab for 1966. They were sold in 1968 time period in this ad:
I am not sure if this person is still in business today but I have a few of these as they were purchased back in 1968. While I know the large bead coins aren't worth much even in mint condition, I find it fascinating that someone went to the trouble to assemble this type set back in the day. As you can tell I am not a very good photographer, and don't have a macro lens yet...so this is as good as it gets.
