This coin may appear to be an Eisenhower silver dollar, but it is really a concealment device. It was used to hide messages or film so they could be sent secretly. Because it looks like ordinary pocket change, it is almost undetectable.

Bubble gum coins are not quite CIA level but they worked in elementary classrooms in the 50’s like a charm.

If someone is carrying around a silver dollar im gonna be immediately suspicious of them
-
Suspicious of what?? I carry an actual silver silver dollar as a pocket piece (not like the Cu-NI dollar shown). A lot of coin collectors and silver enthusiasts do this. Good conversation starter. Nobody has ever looked at me as though I were guilty of something terrible.

Nickel & copper? Stopped silver in 1960s

Exactly...after JFK murder, Silver was taken out of circulation. US coinage debased to this day. The Fall of the Reublic began right there. USConstitution Article 1 section 8&10 mandate ONLY Gold & Silver coin may be Tender in Payment of Debts. Read Read Read

Reublic...LOL.....gaddam smell checker never works when it's needed most. REPUBLIC not Reublic.....lucky it didn't come out Re-Pubic
-
Yes, during WW2, desperate measures caused by metal shortages caused the US mint to use human re-pubic material mixed with tin ...just kidding.
-
Even that war never would have happened but for the banking consortium that supplanted the constitutions mandate for gold & silver. Rather Impressive of the Germans trying to decapitate the beast in WW1 by targeting JPMorgan. Who knows What woulda.

"Okay, give me the film". "You know how they use a silver dollar to conceal the film?" "Yes." "I spent it." "You spent the evidence?" "I was thirsty!"
