A Texas cent is a penny that has been put inside a leather belt (or something else) and pounded until it is stretched out larger than a reg cent. I have a bunch of them.
You don't say! I have relatives that live there. Once on a visit I ordered breakfast and I didn't eat until the next day! LOL Delish!
Well, it's not worth one cent, because the self serve machines and the Coin Star will reject it. I guess you could hand pay it to a cashier but the really large ones you can't do anything with them except keep it as an oddity.
