<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The_Cave_Troll, post: 119023, member: 1674&quot;]I doubt it Roy, the coin in that link is the size of an old silver dollar (Morgan, Ike, et al.).&nbsp; What he is describing is the size of a US cent and is destributed in mint sets to balance out the coins in the set and to &quot;announce&quot; where that sheet of coins was minted.</p><p><br /></p><p>They look like this:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v405/jsmexico/100_3504.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>P.S.&nbsp; I had a heck of a time finding any in my collection to photograph.&nbsp; It seems that I either throw them away when I break open a mint set or spend them; which is likely how the OP ended up with one.&nbsp; Someone spent it.&nbsp; Technically it has no value, but if you return it to a coin cointing machine it will fool the machine and be counted as a cent since it is made on a cent planchet.&nbsp; Note that I would NOT encourage this since it would constitute fraud.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
