<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ben88, post: 4146654, member: 110383&quot;]This is one of the weirdest things I&#039;ve run across in my dad&#039;s collection. From my research, I assume it is an 1876 France, 5 Franc silver coin.</p><p>However, there are two obverse coins, apparently riveted to some kind of housing with a lever on top, and when you open the lever, it is hollow inside.&nbsp; Also, the coins have been shaved thin, so there is no reverse on either of them. When I shine a light inside, the sides are just flat surfaces.</p><p>What in the world could this be ?&nbsp; I was thinking perhaps a device to hide valuables ? But it is so thick it couldn&#039;t pass for a coin.&nbsp; Any thoughts ???</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1071632[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1071633[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1071634[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1071635[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
