These are being sold on an online auction site as coin blanks for jewelry making. The seller is stating they have over 100,000 for sale. Can you imaging just how "rude" it would be if one of those barrels got spilled in an old park or old homesite!

What coin are the blanks for? They might not be coin blanks, seems like that kind of thing would be controlled sale...maybe they are token blanks..

I am sure that they are token blanks. They are 1.25" and made of nickel. The seller is listing them as "coin blanks" to be used in jewelry, crafts, magic, etc.
