I found this years back when I was able to metal Detect . Found it in a play ground in the sand . I know it's not that old , but just wonder why they were even made . They are the same as a regular size far as looks on both sides but very tiny . Sorry about such poor pictures .

Yep. That be a Nixon Penny. They were made and marketed as political commentary.

Time for more coffee.

They made a set of minis as a novelty. I bought a set new 10-15 years ago. Penny, nickle, dime & quarter.
