... the face is a 1936 Lincoln penny head, the reverse is a reverse of a
dime of that era ... Can anyone tell me what I've got here?

Yes. It's a novelty known as a magician's coin. Used as a pocket trick for

decades. The magician seems to turn a cent into a dime,(by flipping the
coin) ... Worth about $1.

Thanks Ira
