HGK3 Pillar of the Community United States 591 Posts	Posted 09/01/2021 10:09 am When soft drinks cost 10 cents in a vending machine these were very common. Goal was to shrink the cent down to as close to the size and weight of a dime as possible to fool the machine and get your Coke for 1 cent. Notice the apparently beveled rims as well as the acid damage overall? Report this Post to the Staff
