Not fake. It's a magician's coin. The back half is gone.

Looks like two coins to me. Penny fits inside the half.

Exactly!

Still, it's probably worth more than $.50 as a novelty coin. Cool find!

Actually gave it to my daughters brother. Figured he'd appreciate it a lot more than a box would

It is used in coin magic; copper/silver routines.

Daughters brother? so your son? or step son?

Sorry not trying to be rude, I just found the wording funny.

I agree! The wording of the statement suggested "distance" in the relationship with "daughters brother".

Her 1/2 brother. Not my son nor step, but my family hates using the word "half", family is family. I live about 350 miles away her at the moment.

Apologies for any confusion, I've been laying in a crappy hospital chair for over 24 hours, due to my dad's health taking a plummet.
