    Going through my grandfather's coin collection. Had a box full of odds and ends coins and foreign coins.

    When I first saw this coin...

    Then I looked at the "obverse"...

    Thanks Potty...

    Oh, I know... I probably should have stated I know it's not an error but a gross creation of a magician's coin. I was trying to convey my initial thoughts when I found it.

    Hey.. At least half of it is half of a silver dime..
    Half the silver melt value! :woot:

    There is no Obverse.. Both would be Reverse sides.
    But you know that ;)

    Not rare enough for the person to create the alternation to care.

    I wonder what you would find if you could separate the two? Did they grind off the opposite side?

    To me it appears as though both coins were ground down but don't know for sure.
