I got one of those also. It is a magicians coin. Hey, that bell looks like the roll I just got today. Nice box. HH
 

Great numbers from two boxes. I've also found two of those coins but didn't realize they were magician coins.
 

Nice job on the silver KW. Congrats.

That is a British penny. Like AW said, they are these "magic" coins that are found from time to time. I have about half a dozen of these. The ones I have found all look like a normal Kennedy halves but had that hollow sound and when popped open the inside of the reverse is stamped with the British penny or Mexican coins. Interesting coin....novelty....good conversation piece. I gave a couple of them to tellers I deal with....gotta stay tight with these gals....ha!

Thanks for the pictures.
 

I've found 2. One with a Kennedy half back, the other with a Mexican coin back. Cool for sure.
