    5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Prank Gift for stocking - A Big Hit!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2025
    My son bought this 12-piece raw anthracite coal as a prank to put in his dad’s stocking, and it was a total hit! The pieces look authentic and were perfect for the joke. Just a heads-up—it can be a little messy if handled too much, but it added to the fun. A unique and hilarious gift idea for the holidays. Five stars!

    You'll get six pieces, but expect a few tiny ones.

    1.0 out of 5 stars tried fraud
    Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2023
    the former delivery was 16 pieces, the last one is 6 pieces. In the catalog picture, it says 6 pk, which would mean 6 packages, delivered was only one with 6 pieces. The least very unclear what is included in the delivery.

    Bought these for an activity for kids about coal mining. They don’t quite look like the pictures online but were as described, and worked well for my project.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Very small amount
    Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2023
    This item came in a small plastic bag with the 6 small pieces enclosed. I didn't read the description like I should have when it said 1" pieces. I expected more for the money. I needed some for my son's W. VA class project and wanted to have some in a basket as a mining prop. I ended up returning this item and found another listing for $5 more and about 8x as much. Shipping was fast, though, and if you need about a palm sized amount this would be fine for you.
