    Either counterfeit or beat to crap.

    May have been used as the anode in a silver plating process.

  • Counterfeit is correct, as well as lead. Not sure of the weight, but it is solid lead. If you tried you could fold it in half with your bare hands. Someone put this in an arcade game I was operating in the early 1990's. I was surprised it didn't get rejected for weight.

    Why would someone go to the trouble. There is no way you could a reasonable quantity of these. I believe most vending machines would reject them.

    Is it clad? If not, it looks counterfeit.
