As the video demonstrates, we struck two half-ounce .999 fine silver planchet with an authentic full-date Buffalo Nickel in between.  The striking process is tricky, and there are marks and abrasions on both the obverse and reverse of these products.  We struck them at a tonnage that would allow the pieces to come apart so you could see the nickel in the center that has been sandwiched, flattening it, and enlarging the diameter.
