The metal that it was made on has got to be worth something right? Probably better than plastic. That coin was probably made before major hyperinflation set in.

Plastic. We find 'em regularly.

There was also one I-don't-know-what made of pot metal, had the shape of a little puddle of drool, and symbols on it that don't correspond with Arabic, Chinese, or Sanskrit.
What a treasure !

Keep on Rollin' !

Yes, you are correct. It ranks right down there with the US clad dime.

Does getting a Mylanta tablet count? It took up the space of several coins in a CWR, so by my accounting it would have a negative value.

Chuck-E-Cheese token? I guess it's worth more than the plastic African coins!
