I know this thread is a few days old, but I have to ask. What was done to the coin to make it look like that? Did they smash a dime and a Wheat cent together or something like that?

I think someone cut two halves of the respective coins and glued them together.

wd1040,
That makes sense. For some reason I just drew a blank with this one! LOL!

If that were a genuine dime with a cent reverse, the reverse would look silver, not copper.
