allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 05/01/2022 3:37 pm My Wife just brought me A 2021 P which someone left in their pocket, and she heard it in our dryer rattling around. So for all the newbies of the hobby that have not run into a ' Dryer Coin' hear you are! An interesting example of the Phenomenon. Regards and listen for the coin sound in your dryer.

Spence Moderator United States 34511 Posts	Posted 05/01/2022 6:02 pm I wonder if this artificial toning is more a result of the chemical detergent in the clothes washer rather than the heat of the clothes dryer. If so, then we could call this a "washer coin".

allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 05/02/2022 2:37 pm Ok so it's a washer/dryer coin! A 2022 went thru the same process but didn't look anything like the 2021, just cleaner. Report this Post to the Staff
