What kind of oversized coins are these?

Greetings,

I bought these two oversized coins at the flea market. I bought them 'cause they looked neat and only cost 5 bucks for both of them.

My question is what are they called. From what I know about them my mother has told me that she used to have a penny version when she was little and I've seen a Quarter version every now and then but never bought one 'cause they want way too much - between 10-20 dollars (USD).

Here are the images :

I believe they usually go for $5.00 a piece retail and other than that they don't have much value. They make nice souvenirs, though.

I know theses are not real coins but I thought they were neat so I bought them.

I wanted to see where else I can find them online so I can have like a whole set ranging from a nickel to a Quarter and any others that I find interesting.


thanks for the reply!.

Well if you ever stop by the Kennedy Center in D.C. I think they have the half dollar version. Don't know how much it's changed in the past few years but that's where I got mine. If you want to buy others eBay may have some. I haven't seen any in a while anywhere but I haven't been looking so there are probably plenty floating around.
