Okay so as bizzare as this sounds ... Back in late August of last year I visited Vegas with a few friends, as I'm sure you can imagine walking the length of the strip was extremely exhausting and extremely hot, but not hot enough to melt the only three quarters in my wallet right? But how does it explain all three quarters ending up so misshaped? It's hard to imagine they was already like this beforehand as I would have noticed ... Does anyone have any theories on this one except for suggesting they are chocolate coins? Here's a few pictures below ...   Your help would be greatly appreciated after a long time trying to figure this one out! Edited by Moneymeltingwallet

 The damage these coins sustained didn't happen in your pocket and if they were chocolate they'd be an even bigger mess. While it may be hard to imagine that you didn't notice the shape those coins were in when you first got them, it is the most plausible explanation. |

Hahahaha nice one.
My guess would be you work in a rough trade? and somehow smashed them in your pocket. Looks like repeatedly.

  You sat on a cement wall like a bench in little puddle of acid rain on a hot day. Where the coins started to get hot and acid soaked. A few hours latter you where thrown or jumped out a moving car during a high speed chase with the coins in back pocket roll down the street or alley getting road rash on the coins. You then threw the jeans in the wash where they spun around with harsh chemicals before they went threw customs or luggage check where they and threw you bag around for fun. I am pretty sure these things happen because its always in movies... Edited by OcalaFlorida

Post pocket damage. These did not magically "melt", or become disfigured, from Las Vegas heat.

You know I really think we're on the verge of working this one out!! Buddy - Although this seems the most logical scenario, I cannot believe I never noticed beforehand ... Vegas will always remain a mysterious place to me  Edited by Moneymeltingwallet

As the jokesters have suggested, there are a lot of reasons why you didn't notice these damaged coins. I would add jet lag and the extreme heat.

Weigh them and compare to other inexpensive metals. If some one was counterfeiting, Vegas might be the place to pass them.

Do you remember falling down any stairs or off of a building...?

Simplest answer is they looked like that when he put them IN his pocket and then went for a walk.

I think we need to consider the possibility that it actually happened in the wallet. I know full well some of those women can make your jaw drop, eyes bug out, and put "dark" thoughts in you head. Mebbe the same thing happened to old George. Just being dead 218 years doesn't mean you're blind.
