Hi,Gage,
wel come to health care magic family,
Usually up to one to one and a hale year child crying due to colic pain but in your case child had temperature mostly it may be viral as your doctor told.
But you have doubt that child might have swallowed a coin.
go for X-ray of abdomen and let your doubt cleared.
ok and bye.
