    Shrews1994 Collecting is my passion.

    Okay i just did the magnet test and it doesn't stick. So what y'all are saying it if it did stick it's A slug? So it's a coin of some sort? I don't know what to go by to look this one up.

    Well that's just one test to see if it's no good.
    You would have to search countries that use copper coins and check the size and weight to see if it's a match. Again that doesn't mean it is, it just narrows it down. NGC has tons of stuff listed. England, etc. lots of countries used copper coins of various sizes. See this one in the link is 7.12 grams, so you move on. The Bronze 1 penny is 3.5600g so that's not it.

    There's an Italian 20 Centesimi which is copper and 4.0 grams I doubt that is it. You'll need to know the diameter is on your coin.
    There's an old Royal token from France that weighs 4.12, but also
    I don't think that's it. If it's not a slug it's going to be more modern.

    They're backkkkkkk....I'm seeing all Chinese characters in the alerts column...

    This time the string of Chinese characters starts with English letters that appear to be the initials of many of our Universities, like, ASU-Arizona State University, UCB-University of California @ Berkeley, USC-University of Southern California and many more.
    I wonder if these are links to Chinese betting parlors for American college football.There's more : TROY, UC, UA, UARK, SFU, Capitano. Aren't all of those American colleges or universities?

    If you translate the Chinese language spam posts you will find they are selling fake diplomas from those universities.
