Anyone seen a coin like this before?



Easy, it's this one, right?

Except not so fast! Mine is only about 10mm in diameter.

I've seen miniature copies made of US gold coins but this is the first time I've seen a novelty miniaturized world coin. And what an odd coin to choose.

Anyone have any further info on this coin? Is it worth anything? Thanks!

​Yes, it does seem like it. I wonder when they were made.

Spielgeld.

You can find these for many types.
And yes, these are collected and worth something.
A couple of examples:
