<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 4253031, member: 36"]They might be repurposed real coins from somewhere. I found some earrings made of Philippino coins made for use while they were still under the US government, but made for 1947. The coins were worthless as coins, so they got sold as scrap metal and made into jewelry. Not the first or last time that was done either. These might have been something left over from a similar situation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
