long time no see Pipster how ya been
what you have is a scotch and soda magic coin but your missing the release ring, you can ether drop it on edge a few times to release it or make a release ring yourself with a metal ring slightly smaller then the coin and hit it on he table, the inner coin will slip out hope this helps...... Google in (scotch and soda trick)

I was talking to a man in town that does slight of hand and he also said Scotch and Soda was the trick. The release ring he called a knock ring

You searched 4 and 1/2 boxes or 41 and 1/2?

I got 2 of these in the same box..with the same inside coin as yours..The only reason i noticed was the coin machine would'nt take them...We tossed them onto the floor and they poped open..
