Kokomo New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 01/10/2019 10:00 am Found this on the bathroom floor last nigh next to the clothes hamper(must have fallen out of a pocket). Laid it in on the desk until morning. This is what I found under the scope this morning. Any ideas, thoughts, head scratching? Report this Post to the Staff

Kokomo New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 01/10/2019 7:35 pm Thank you for the insights. Didn't come out of my dryer, thank goodness. Still mystified how it ended up on the bathroom floor. I think I'll look at quarters or dimes for awhile...maybe even pennies. Again, thanks for the lesson. Gonna flip it and mesmerize my friends with it. Report this Post to the Staff
