that play money looks like a half real coming out of the ground! I had one a couple years ago, had to start it at for a few seconds to realize it wasn't Spanish silver.

Nice first! You will always remember this one. Which mint is it from? A few bucks more in value,depending on which one.

I've never held a trime so at first I thought, no way is this a trime?:dontknow: Uh no it's play money. I thought it was silver at first. It was still cool knowing the AT pro picked it up, its tiny.
