coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/06/2020 7:41 pm Probably trying to buy a soda (which was a dime then) for a cent that they altered. But probably didn't work as the mec on the machine would reject it as it would be too thick to be a dime. Thus the alteration of cents with acid to reduced width and height.
