biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 06/01/2011 11:06 pm Yes, a Dryer Coin. Zincolns do not hold up well due to their soft composition. It probably got stuck in the dryer not too long after the August 2009 release Report this Post to the Staff

Wild Bill Pillar of the Community United States 744 Posts	Posted 06/02/2011 1:12 pm Fuzzy317 was on to something....... this Dryer Coin does appear to have the same diameter as a dime.... even though there is not any intrinsic or numismatic value to these type coins, I do find this junk fascinating.... as you can see, I used a legal pad for scale....
