I'm looking for my magic coin price list.. but it disappeared!

First you have to determine which magician's coin you have and if it's sellable. For example.. I would not want to buy half of a Folding Quarter, that's the magic coin that you can fold in half or 3 parts so it could fit through the neck of a glass bottle.
I believe you once found a Kennedy Half Shell with the other 2 sided Foreign and Kennedy reverse coin gimmick?

 

Generally, they aren't worth much

 

I suppose you could go into eBay and see what various types have sold for? Then look at what's offered for sale. Not too complicated.

 

so why not?

 

I was just wondering why people put them in rolls if they were worth more than 50 cents...

 

Here's the "real" WHY NOT? Probably before you were born LOL LOL.

 

Maybe they didn't realize it was a Magicians Type Coin. I once lost a 2 Headed Nickel (Both sides Obverse gimmick) and a gag Nickel that squirted water. Put them by accident into my regular change. Lost them both forever They vanished!
