CONRADI-HORSTER

A famous magic dealer in Germany the Horster coin shown here is approximately silver dollar size and listed at MT077. The coin is Nickel/Silver and considered a "thin". This is due to the fact that the coin was stamped out of a thin sheet of metal and the image appears raise on the obverse of the coin but the reverse image is embedded in the coin (called incused). The Maja Godess of Magic image on the coin was used on August Roterberg's Palming Coins as well.
