Coin or not?

pescadore · May 18, 2018

I found this in the river the other day and thought it was junk but ID'ed pretty high so I stuck it in my pouch. I pulled it out and was looking at it later and saw some writing with a 10 on one side and you can make out "cents" on the other. It is smaller than a dime and very thin. May be play money but wanted to post it to get opinions of others. I have no way to test the metal other than my detector.

It's an aluminum play coin.

That was my initial thought. Thanks for the comment. I just wanted to get other opinions before I threw it in the junk pile.

Definitely a play coin, they sound awesome on just about any machine too. Cool find!

Thanks, I ended up putting in my finds box and keeping it.

I have found about 15 of those aluminum play coins.
They sound great and look like trimes or silver dimes :mad:
