    Miniature Coins

    I just came across a lot of 52 mini coins and thought they were pretty neat. Are these things worth anything or are they just something neat? If nothing else ill give them to my son for his little collection. Anyone know anything about these?

    I have a few. Some are used in magic tricks, where they turn a large coin into a smaller one. They are also just novelty items. Not really worth anything to a collector in my opinion.

        As long as you enjoy what you purchase, it is a good buy.

            I had a set of one of each denomination and noticed that they were selling on Ebay, so I sold mine and got $5.50 for seven of them.

              I remember having these when I was a kid. They were fun until I lost them.

                  I's easy if you have a miniature camera to go along with your miniature coins!

                    Especially hard to photograph when they are lost - LOL. But more seriously, sounds like a new challenge...
