Coin shrinking?

It's neat, odd....but why?

Makes a great conversation piece I guess!

It would be interesting to send in a perfectly-shrunk coin to one of the grading services, to see the resulting description.

Sad to see it done on century-old coins.

I did this once to a Canadian coin (...and Jbuck will love this one) I took a 2009 Montreal Canadiens Loon dollar and had it shrunk down to the size of a 25c coin... gave me great pleasure saying how worthless a Montreal Canadiens dollar actually was!!

I think the "search box" should be renamed to the "jbuck box"

For some reason I just remember certain things. I wish it were true for everything else in my life.
