    Welcome to CT, Curtis.
    Yes. We see them often. It might be a magician's coin.
    Post a picture, you'll get more information.

    We have seen them plenty. Look very closely around the edge of one side or another. Usually they are milled and joined, with the only sign of it on the far edge of the rim on one side or the other.

    Also compare the size with a normal cent. Many 'fun coins' are made slightly larger to avoid the law. Others are made regular size with intent to scam.
