This ordinary-looking English Penny is really a shimmed coin with steel core, making it "magnetic". The coin itself is not a magnet, but it will stick to a magnet. Made by Sterling Magic.
This is a genuine English penny coin that has been specially gimmicked to hide a steel core inside, allowing you to attach the coin to a hidden magnet. Here are some ideas:
Of course, you can use this as an ordinary English penny as you are performing any routine that involves an English penny.For example, since it is copper color, it makes any coin switch trick even more visual, as you are changing a silver color coin into a copper color one.
English pennies are copper color and are approximately the same size as a U.S. half dollar. The copper color will tarnish over time.
