arianzo Pillar of the Community Canada 2124 Posts	Posted 12/02/2014 10:16 pm I received today this banknote from the bank. I wonder what did someone make to the bill .... it can't be straightened, it's stuck, very firm. It's because of extreme temperature? Water? Report this Post to the Staff

Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2520 Posts	Posted 12/02/2014 10:27 pm Maybe someone used heat on it, crumpled it, then left it to cool. You know, when you melt plastic then leave it to cool again, it's stuck in that new shape. Report this Post to the Staff
wazzappenning Valued Member Canada 329 Posts	Posted 12/02/2014 10:33 pm i vote lighter held 6 inches or so below it. I had been wondering if the bank would still accept them if you put one in the oven and made shrink art with them? Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 12/02/2014 11:22 pm I have ironed polymer banknotes. The result is quite comical: done carefully, they shrink to about a third of their original dimensions. From a legal point of view, they are still fully recognised as legal tender.

Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2520 Posts	Posted 12/03/2014 9:27 pm Did it shrink? Melt into a gooey mess? Explode? Report this Post to the Staff
