Whirlpool Method?

Does accidentially sending the coins in your jeans pocket through the extra-heavy wash cycle--constitute coin cleaning?

No. Money laundering. :whistle:

 

That's a good one. I have been amazed sometimes how well change left in my pocket comes out looking. If I did it on purpose I'm sure I would not be so lucky.

 

Krispy, your reply was right on! Very funny.

 

Good one Krispy. But - yes it does could as cleaning. The coins come out shiny, but some of the luster is gone.

 

...and so the saga of dirty money continues....

I vote for "Krispy" - good comeback.

 

Thanks guys. ^_^

 

They sure come out looking great!! Thats for sure!!

 

What about the dryer? Noisy stuff that hot money is.

 

As an aside, ever notice that the bills are always up front when you open the dryer?

 

I never expected such a great answer. You really had me laughing!

 

Nope - with paper money it has stayed in my pocket and the change always comes out of the pocket and ends up in the washer.

 

Coins in a dryer often end up spooned then appear on CT with a "what is this?" inquiry thread.

 

Just spotted this thread and (without reading further) Krispys answer immediately came to mind...day late and a dollar short. :smile

What is it with us New York types? :goofer:

 

LOL! We can't keep our thoughts to ourselves and our mouths shut :secret:

 

Coins in the dryer tend to keep me up:headbang:

 

I have noticed that coins left in a pocket of a pair swimming trunks or at the bottom of a heavily chlorinated pool certainly shine up real nicely. Summer is coming up so..... Technically this wouldn't be money laundering. :mouth:

 

Nope, you're right, if a pool is involved, that would be dipping, a usually 'accepted' form of coin cleaning.

 

Krispy, are you a comedian in your other life?

 

Nah, just too much time put into the hobby and spent on line. :smile
