This was basically a prototype coin struck to demonstrate a design. As the article says, it was never legal tender, so it's not inherently notable the way actual money is. I wasn't able to find any in-depth sources about it, so it seems like it's not particularly notable even to the coin-collecting community. ♠PMC(talk) 12:28, 17 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - nom is right in relation to a standalone article, notability isn't established. I do think there is probably a logical article to merge this into - happy to consider anything someone might suggest. Nosebagbear (talk) 14:35, 17 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Searching for sources bring up a few things showing that it existed, but nothing in depth or that demonstrates why this prototype of a non-legal tender coin is notable. Rorshacma (talk) 17:36, 17 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - per nom. - ZLEA T\C 22:02, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
