CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 1:49 pm It's a Dryer Coin. Sometimes coins get caught in the fins of commercial dryers and bounce around forever, flatting the features in that particular way and rounding over the rim. Coop should be by in a minute with pictures of really extreme Dryer Coins. Report this Post to the Staff
