DigsNW Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2021 #4 Sep 5, 2021 #4 That was a different find. At least it was a 1989 and not a 1959. That would have been sad.

I've seen various cut out coins being sold as jewelry, Mercury dimes among them. Buffalo nickels are also quite popular as cut outs.

Thanks Jeff, coins like this are actually very common, being used for jewelry. Mercury dimes and Buffalo Nickels seem to be used a lot.
