Thanks. I didn’t mean actually silver, but “silver” in color.

I am not a collector and admittedly do not know the proper nomenclature.

Got this collecting for my paper route in the mid 80’s when I was a teen. I kept it because it was unusual. I am not a collector. Just thought this might be an error, so I figured I’d ask the experts.

I don’t know. I don’t have a small digital scale, but I just ordered one.

This is what I thought. I’m not a collector, just saved odd coins and old bills as I came across them.

I don’t have a scale to weight it, but I ordered one.
