Saw this in a half roll this morning, and about died.

Where did the reeded edge go? The edge is as slick as deer guts on a doorknob now.

You must have pooped your pants when you saw that -lol! Your blood pressure tends to rise quickly, then drops once you realize it's a worthless slug.

I have seen a few tokens and arcade coins that look like that. Today I was dumping zinc and I saw a few of these things in the TD penny arcade reject shoot.

Maybe the reeded edge was filled in by the plating process?

Had I seen those silver edges together, even without the golden one in there, I'd probably have crapped my pants ! ! ! :o
