BlueSolo Pillar of the Community United States 740 Posts	Posted 04/07/2015 11:48 pm Interesting, is it the same size and thickness as a normal nickel? Looks like a Dryer Coin to me. Look familiar?: https://goccf.com/t/143036 Edited by BlueSolo 04/07/2015 11:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff
AaronSzcz New Member United States 45 Posts	Posted 04/07/2015 11:58 pm it does look and sound very familiar to that coin^, rounded edge, not so much thin but looks very much like it thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
tweak800 Pillar of the Community United States 1249 Posts	Posted 04/08/2015 12:12 am You know I was going to say Dryer Coin as well but what's up with that weird edge was the sides beaten in so much and then beat down that it looks like finning was wrapped over the edge and flattened to the coin? Do Dryer Coins do that or have that effect on them? Report this Post to the Staff
AaronSzcz New Member United States 45 Posts	Posted 04/08/2015 12:23 am I wondered about the "border" myself it almost looks like it could be peeled up or away Report this Post to the Staff
BlueSolo Pillar of the Community United States 740 Posts	Posted 04/08/2015 12:38 am AaronSzcz: "not so much thin" Dryer Coins are thicker (and smaller) than normal since the sides have been pushed towards the center it might not be too noticeable though, since the sides don't seem to be raised as much I doubt there will be much of a difference. To be honest, I would keep this coin anyways since I think it looks cool and is a nice example of a Dryer Coin. I want to have a collection of some good examples of PMD for reference. I thought rim looked strange too Edited by BlueSolo 04/08/2015 12:39 am Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/08/2015 12:38 am In commercial clothes dryers the drum is very tall. When coins are in the pockets, they can bang around or even get stuck in the dryers. When they work on the machines, some weird coins are found. Report this Post to the Staff
