I need help finding the name and use of this old coin set sitting on my magic drawer for many years. The set consist of a Johnson unexpanded Hong Kong coin shell with a copper/half dollar silver insert and one regular Johnson Hong Kong coin.

Is this possibly an incomplete copper-silver-brass?

Sounds like a C/S/B or a variation of 'The Chinese Bit'.

Why do you think it's incomplete? Just add a normal half dollar and matching copper coin (is it an English Penny?) and you are in business mate.

As Merc Man said add those two coins and watch what you can perform :

Also Dan Watkins has a very nice handling of this set (which is my personal favorite but I can't find it on youtube)

Johnson's Chinatown? Does the shell have a flesh colored spot of paint?

Niko thanks for that video. It was cool. That is a great set to have.
