<p>[QUOTE="Hobo, post: 1491165, member: 11521"]What you are describing is a "magician's coin". These usually have two heads or two tails. I have never heard of a silver magician's coin with the date of a clad coin. Why would someone go to the trouble to counterfeit two silver versions of a clad coin just to cut them up to make a magician's coin? Makes no sense whatsoever to me. I think you simply have a regular, clad magician's coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>How did the dealer determine the coin is silver? Did he perform a specific gravity test on the coin or did he simply weigh it? A specific gravity test would tell you whether the coin is clad or silver.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
