Looks like a fantasy or novelty coin to me. Doesn't look real. Can we see the other side please?

This appears to be a shrunken coin. It is done with very high power capacitors (5X lightening bolt power...most people don't have access to these). The coin is wrapped in a coil of wire and subjected to a massive voltage surge.
The coin shrinks radially and may thicken slightly. Always wanted to do this!
