Two mercs today...one didn't "ring" true

I was happy to find 2 mercs today. One was very worn and, after I did my customary coin flip ring test, I was curious to find that the ultra worn one sounded like the dull zinc thud one would hear when flipping a post 82 cent.

All mercs are silver right?

Thoughts?

Here's a few pics of the thuddy one.


Edit....
Holy cow I didn't realize how big these pics would be! sorry

Looks like a beach coin or like it was in a fire.

Now I know how startled Faye Wray must have been when King Kong reached through that hotel window and grabbed her! .................................................

There are counterfeit mercs out there. One member that posts occasionally (CyberDan I think?) either found some or bought some - can't remember which.

Wow, That's a lot of hair and flesh. I had my monitor set on 200% so I could read the small print. My wife walked in and thought I was looking at pornography. Had some explaining to do.
