The answer is to collect things like tokens and medallions that CoinStar won't accept, and you'll have the last laugh on the thief! |

I saw this in a Buzzfeed article about snappy comebacks to online posts. OP meant to say 10 years, I believe.  Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Hondo that is the most expensive record setting priced coin in history! Found the actual article, and it is as funny as the title. https://expressmorning.com/could-th...h-overnight/The coin shown is a 1999 and not even a real one, the regular sized one, the tiny one is obviously fake. The coin worth $170 million is a 1943 bronze cent, which 19 are known and one sold for $1.7 million in 2010 so it must be worth $170 million now!  The rest of the article beyond the pricing and sensationalistic headlines is actually pretty good.  "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

westcoin, I saw the "article" while scrolling through Google News a few days ago. I figured it was clickbait so kept scrolling, but remembered it. Thanks for satisfying my (and other's) curiosity.
