This was thrown at me from a car, in Las Vegas, NV. What is it? A COIN?

Appears to be silver, and the size of a Quarter.

I ain't touchin' that line........

 

No, Las Vegas, NV is a city.

 

O.K. TOSSED from a LIMO with intent for me to catch it! On the Strip, By the ShowBoat Casino.

 

Take it to the Silver & Gold Pawn shop, maybe you'll get on TV.
Looks like a bullet to me

 

OK, I think the guy likes you......

 

An Ancient guy

No help on this one! I declare it to be JUNK! I bought alot of coins that day, I wonder if it was a token of thier appreciation or sarcasium? 213sarah?

 

Looks like an ancient of some sort, could be silver.

 

Thank You! The rust color in the top right corner of the 1st. photo, made me think of possible junk or imperiaties in the metal. I thought it might be lead, but, lead darkens over time. It has some wieght to it.

 

I hope that one of the ancient collectors at CT can identify the design for you. I do not recognize it.

Look carefully at the edge for evidence of a seam (left over from a modern casting). Also see if it is attracted to a magnet. These might be indicators that it is fake/junk (not silver) which would explain why someone might throw it from a car.

 

It's a fossilized dinosaur egg. In the righthand photo, I can see baby T-Rex's head emerging from the shell.

It's no more illogical than some of the things people "see" on circulated coins. Right?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was silver. Stranger things have happened in Vegas. Especially when I go there.:devil:

 

It does kinda look like an ancient, maybe middle eastern?

 

Of course you violated the rule...."what is thrown at you in Vegas, stays in Vegas!"

 

Now! That was Funny & Good! As well as the T-Rex one. What is that rock in your hand, in your post picture? 213sarah

 

It is a 23 carat piece of African Iolite. It has 3 different colors depending on which dimension you are looking through. A nice sapphire blue, gray, and yellowish gray.

I am a gemstone faceter in another hobby, so I usually only deal with crystals ( rather than rocks ) Here is a Namanga Garnet I cut recently.

Maybe it was a quarter that was left at the bottom of a fountain.
