Medal/Token/Toy/Junk??? [решено]

9 сообщений
Just got this huge penny and dime like thingy, and need to know if it's anything more than junk. They are 3 inch in diameter.

Hello,
It is a 90% silver mercury dime and a large cent.
Too bad they look fake.

Replicas of:
Large cent - Some numismatic value
Merc dime - Not much above spot.

They're fake.
Yes - both fake - the portraits (and lettering) do not look correct.

​Oh well, guess I can let my kids play with them now
Or just put them with your replica's/fakes/ copies

Even though these paper weights are obviously fake they still sell for a few dollars each. They are sold at the US mint as a novelty, I actually just bought my children a few examples of these at our recent visit to the US mint in PA.
I happen to love these paper weights. We have about 5 varieties of these at home.

These oversize novelties are privately made, and sold to tourists. They were never meant to pass as currency.
