Just bought this item at auction because who can pass up a bargain, right? The three test coin set comes from the Royal Mint but I can't find anything on them. They are Copper, Nickel and Brass. Any idea of what denomination they were testing? Any info would be appreciated. Thank you!!

    Nevermind. I found it. These are demo coins used the show the Royal Mints plating process used to manufacture longer lasting coins. Off to eBay it goes!
