A coaster?

 

What do you mean?

 

I've seen similar gigantic Lincoln Cent looking discs sold as drink coasters. This one looks similar. Those usually run around 3" or 4" in diameter.

It took a while for your first photo to load on my phone. I didn't see the weight when I posted. That thing looks like its bloated - having an allergic reaction to something.

 

The only thing worth less than a Zincoln -- a counterfeit Zincoln. Unless, of course, it's struck on something other than copper-plated zinc.

Let's see the reverse!

 

You see it. 2 headed

 

Ahh so a fake or magicians coin at best... what does the edge look like?

 

and I was first thinking it was one of my muriatic acid specials.
special coins put back in circulation for collectors

 

Horrible lol

 

Rolled thin?

 

I had to look again. There is zinc showing under the copper coating.

 

More likely pot metal. That would be the cheapest thing to cast and then plate, I think -- and this one screams "cheap".

 

Ah, a very rare etsy $1,000,000 coin

 

Wouldn’t pot metal be heavier than zinc?

 

Probably, if it's the right thickness -- but this one looks very thin.
