It is a smaller amount and size than I hoped for, but after reading the reviews, I was prepared and ordered anyway.Could it have been better? Yes. But I was still pleased with the product and it worked great for the Living History program I was doing. They blended in well with the few real ones I have, and no one questioned them.If you know the strengths and weaknesses of the coins going in to it, you should have no problem making a decision you are happy with.

ピカピカの金貨や銀貨だけでなく、時間が経って黒ずんだような銀貨や銅貨もセットになっていて「それらしさ」が抜群。丸い硬貨と混ぜるとよりそれらしくなって更によしです。

I like the assorted color metal pirate coins. They look real. I wasn’t prepared for a tightly wrapped bag of 100 coins to fit in the palm of my hand though. They are about the size of a quarter. I’ll have to sprinkle them on top of the bigger plastic coins for them to be seen. They do have some weight to them and they do look great. They’re just smaller than I expected. I’ll put them on the top of the rest of the treasure.

It looks so real! I got them as an inside joke gift for my husband, and he loved them! So whether you're buying for an adult or a kid, it will be a hit!

My grandson had so much fun with the original package I purchased that I just surprised him with a treasure hunt that lead to these coins. They are solid/metallic and look so real that he has convinced all of his friends he hit the motherload.

Definitivamente valen la pena, en mi caso las usé para reemplazar monedas de juegos de mesa de tema de piratas.. De lo mejor!

3 étoiles parce que le produit est bien, mais la photo de vente est trompeuse... en effet, la taille des pièces n'étant pas indiquée on se rend compte à la réception qu'elle équivaut à une pièce de 20cent en plus fine, et le lot de 50 pièces vaudrait bien les 18$ comme vendu aux USA mais pas les presque 60 € vendus en France.

Perfect as tokens or currency for any game, with a generous helping for those wishing to outfit more crowded gaming tables. Good quality and unit-to-cost ratio.*These coins are about the size of a US quarter, only slightly thinner, and about half as heavy; but are still quite solid, unlikely to bend, and have a nice heft to them. Pleasant to handle.They come in equal portions of 50 gold and 50 silver, each portion having 25 “shiny” and 25 “tarnished” coins, resulting in a mix of new and old. Attractive to the eye.Additional thoughts and points of interest:-Great for people who don’t want to settle for cheap plastic coins.-The irregular shape and design gives them a nice “Fantasy / Historical” feel.-They are cast from molds rather than handwrought (which would be slow and prohibitively expensive), so the coins are identical to each other, which might put off some potential buyers. Personally, I say: ”Yay, for technological progress!”-Useful to simulate one or more coin currencies in your games. The resourceful D&D player might use the tarnished coins in place of Copper Pieces.-For those apprehensive of the “tarnished” coins, do not fret: The finish, likely achieved through an acid bath, means the “tarnished” coins are not grimy or dirty; and the texture, while slightly rougher than that of the “shiny” coins, does not feel rusty or flaky at all. When examined in person, even the tarnished coins are quite attractive in their own right.-Yes, they are in fact metal. They don’t appear to be ferromagnetic (I tested, but with a pretty weak magnet).-I have heard that similar products in the market have an unattractive greenish-yellow color that looks “fake,” or that they (other coins, from other manufacturers) discolor if left in the sun. But the “shiny” coins from this manufacturer are of a realistic color comparable to authentic coin currencies, and I have not personally observed any discoloration (though I have not been abusive in my testing).-Every LARPer should have a leather drawstring bag full of these.*At the time of writing these coins were the best priced among their competitors if you are looking to buy in bulk, with the “Lot of 200” from the same manufacturers being the most cost effective.

When I ordered these coins I was under the impression they would be nice looking, but rather thin metal. This is just something you live with in this day and age of toy companies cutting costs wherever they can. When they arrived I was in for a very nice surprise. The coins are indeed all metal, and are a pretty decent weight and strength too. These sturdy coins will take some doing to bend out of shape and have the weight and thickness of what I would expect from an actual coin. Not a gold or silver coin mind you, but maybe the weight of a nickel or quarter.These are two sided coins with designs very much resembling gold doubloons from the 1800's. So you can even use them to flip heads or tails, which is a nice tough in the level of detail that I was not expecting (shoot... I was half expecting a once sided design with the other side blank). As another reviewer has stated they are not exactly as you see them in the picture. While the coin design definitely is the color options are not. You only get three different colors: Gold, Silver and that darker faded color. So you won't be getting the same color variations as you see on the picture. It's still all good to me. Plus they kind of give you amounts based on "value" with the darker coins being the most prominent and the silver coins being about half or less that amount and the gold coins being less in amount than the silver coins. Nice touch.I love just about everything about these coins. The only slight drawback is they are smaller than I expected. That could just me be when thinking about those plastic gold coins you see at Party City, however I just want to make sure your expectations are set reasonably. I don't feel the slightly smaller size in any way affects how freakin' cool these coins are. We are using them as a token reward for my son. You should have seen the look on his face when he got his first coin. It makes me wish I were a kid again so I can play with them.
