Using numismatics to advertise is still alive

I found this pretty interesting - got this in my mail a few days ago:



Not too sure if it's valid to leave the serial number as it is though

And those who is curious what year the penny is, it's 1951. Yes, it's a genuine copper penny.

That's pretty cool. A great advertisement!

 

Cool stuff

 

gxseries:
Nice, but, was it just a blind mailing (junk mail)?
Or are you on a mailing list?

 

It's just some junk mail but I thought it's cool for a change.

 

That is some cool junk mail

 

Is this an australian packaging company, or did you get this in the US?

 

lol no, I'm in Aus, not in the US.

I found one of the lines to be interesting in the packaging:

"Keep this lucky penny in a safe place, and present it to our servicemen to receive $50 Cash-Back* on your Plumbing Job"

Oh well, now it looks like I'm advertising for them in a way

 

I love it.

 

It sure is, If anyone has that kind of junk mail send it here!:kewl:

 

Wish we got junk mail like that in the states!
