copper nickel daddy Pillar of the Community United States 2224 Posts	Posted 01/22/2013 05:25 am You have all probably heard stories like this before; people taking hundreds of dollars (sometimes thousands of dollars) worth of cents and decorating walls, floors, or ceilings with them. This article has a twist about two-thirds of the way through, though. If that date is not a typo, wouldn't you love to get a close look at that floor? http://todaynews.today.com/_news/20...-floor?lite= VXL9GmS2qO8 * Edited by Staff to add video * Report this Post to the Staff

wrestling_135 Pillar of the Community United States 802 Posts	Posted 01/22/2013 07:34 am I'd agree. I have a hard time believing someone would sand down a $100,000 coin and glue it to the floor. Report this Post to the Staff
Moe145 Pillar of the Community United States 8904 Posts	Posted 01/22/2013 08:02 am Quote: Within the bulk of pennies came some rare finds - - " a 1944 WWII 440 steel penny that was created due to a copper shortage, and a 1873 penny featuring an Indian head instead of Abraham Lincoln. Both pennies are worth enough money to pay for the project Am I missing something? How is a 1944 Steelie and an 1873 IHC worth enough to pay for the floor?

fioti Pillar of the Community United States 4212 Posts	Posted 01/23/2013 4:54 pm They're making a huge deal of this today on the news. They have close-ups & the IHC, with the '44, only the rev. Yes, shenanigans. Report this Post to the Staff
