These would look great on a stake side TT. One set is yellow and the other is red.

Jay,

Can you tell if they depend on total internal reflection or is there a reflective material behind the glass?

Neil, I don't believe there is any reflective material behind the glass.

Seeing it in your hand Jay gives a good perspective of size. I figured they were much smaller

Gary, I was hoping people would see the size without posting a measurement by holding it my hand for the photo. Actually I was thinking of using these coins at some point to give an accessory a size reference. GRIN!

Notice how the flash lights the unit up.


I found these gag coins in a coin shop 30 or so years ago.
