SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10456 Posts	Posted 05/09/2013 10:05 pm I have done this, with Canadian loon dollars and roofing nails, and driving them into an asphalt pavement parking lot on a hot day... Definitely a fun thing to watch http://paradoxoff.com/coin-on-a-sidewalk.html "Discovery follows discovery, each both raising and answering questions, each ending a long search, and each providing the new instruments for a new search." -- J.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 05/10/2013 10:44 am Super glued or Araldited coins to concrete pavement can be easily removed with a sharp blow applied to the edge with a cold chisel. I have seen U.S. silver dollars hard silver soldered soldered to copper or bronze rods, then cast flush into the concrete facade of a building. Similar to above. They were NOT removed, but they WERE damaged beyond recognition within a year. Report this Post to the Staff
