KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 03/23/2008 01:05 am There's a business which mints coins from interesting metallic elements. A little reactive perhaps for a circulation coin: Report this Post to the Staff

The last time we heard from long-time member and occasional poster Heather the Hoarder, she'd acquired an interest in collecting by element, and had posted a link to this site, in this old thread. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16830 Posts	Posted 03/23/2008 9:41 pm I like the advisory page for their new gallium coins. Pure gallium's melting point is 30°C (86°F) so a gallium coin will melt on a warm day, under bright lights, or in your hand. I wonder if they'll ever try to strike mercury coins. Mercury (also known as quicksilver) melts at -39°C (-38°F), and a coin made of mercury would still melt in your freezer. You'd need to store them in dry ice or liquid nitrogen to keep them solid. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
