I got a Copper/silver for free, I love it! Unfortunately it is a Sterling, but it was free. The only problem I have is the sound when it hit a table, it doesn’t sound like a real coin. I know that it is the joint that creates the sound but I was wondering if the higher level C/S coins have the same problem? I doubt it but thought I would ask. Thanks

The Johnson one I have sounds like a real coin.

My Schoolcraft copper/silver sounds fine hitting the table, but for some reason I hate the sound it makes when it hits the floor. I guess it is, because it shouldn't have hit the floor in the first place. Anyway, it was a bit more expensive than your freebee. Good luck with yours Smithpaul and I hope it keeps hitting the table.....
Where I go, so do my coins.....

My favorite C/s coins are two ultimate copper silvers produced by sterling in the early 80's, the copper is blended into the half, and the coins ring true.

There is some wonderful work done in making magicians' coins. We know it but can't tell the audience. Ever felt cheated?
Bob Sanders Magic By Sander PS --- My first shell half was given to me by a merchant in the very early 60s. He felt cheated someone had given him a "fake" coin with the silver scraped out. (I refunded his $.50 to him!) |
