    Spy Coin

    How cool would it be to find one of these while hunting?

    They are commonly referred to as Magician coins. Keep them. They are worth 40%'ers to some.

    Re: Spy Coin

    These are very common in coin tricks and one of the best tricks it is used for is called "Scotch and Soda." This hollowed out half has been around for a long time in the magic community and this is the first time I have ever heard of it being used as a "Secret" spy coin. I go with it being designed for the magic community and not the world of espionage.

    There was a post a few months back on these and many members replied they had found them while CRH.
