When I saw this article, I couldn't help thinking how many MS state coins she ruined by putting glue on them!

She used the "shiny" ones for the highlights...

I've seen other giant cents made like this one before, and I don't think this is even the largest one. I do have one question. Why is it upside down? Possibly she did the obverse as well and it is right side up, but you would think they would have taken the picture of the upright side.

I have seen pictures of Lincoln and other things done like this also

Matter of fact, here is a couple of the videos of them being made http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNL6ZH2ErV0

I too get a little ticked off when I see those things. Of course the people that make those really just don't care about coin values so to them a coin is a coin.
