noahs-numismatics Pillar of the Community Canada 3167 Posts	Posted 01/25/2013 10:16 pm @pennysaver, is a Dryer Coin just what the names suggests? (coin thats been through the dryer?) Report this Post to the Staff
pennysaver Pillar of the Community Canada 937 Posts	Posted 01/27/2013 3:30 pm Hi Noah That's right. It usually comes out of a laundromat dryer, where the coin got stuck in behind the main drum and just tumbled and slid around for a year or so as people did their laundry. Some people collect them for novelty's sake, but they generally don't carry any premium. Saying that, I'd like to have one myself just for the sake of having one! Report this Post to the Staff

noahs-numismatics Pillar of the Community Canada 3167 Posts	Posted 01/27/2013 8:48 pm If there was one thing I should have for my collection that I don't, it would be a scale. I have a standar electronic kitchen one for spaghetti etc. which I use to measue the weight of my packages, but I doubt a rounded weight would help...could be wrong though...

noahs-numismatics Pillar of the Community Canada 3167 Posts	Posted 01/28/2013 7:47 pm Okay, checked the weight. The kitchen scale reads 4g for the above coin as opposed to 5g for a regular coin from that era. Report this Post to the Staff
