Go look at some of nohope587's work in the Exonumia forum - look for threads he's originated - if you want to see what can be done with this. He's amazing.

Pretty cool. I almost want to see an Eisenhower dollar. Almost. I still cringe at the thought.

Do that to an Ike, you could drive a truck through the hole. Whichever part you removed. It's honestly one of the things which appeals to me about them; they're so stark they need to be near-perfect for good eye appeal. A set of Superb Gem Ikes would be a formidable album.

I wonder when whoever is doing this will try it on a 1877 Indian cent.

Just another Eisenhower dollar set I need to build.  I wonder how they would look in the Capital Plastics holder (I still want to build that set).

A problem with those is they possibly will not work in a gum ball machine.

Quote: Wait, there are still gumball machines out there? Your kidding of course. However, all the ones I've seen are for a Quarter. At almost every Walmart, Kmart, Target stores at the main entrance.

Yes, of course. But nothing like the large row of machines in front of the K-mart when I was a kid.
