<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Billy Kingsley, post: 682464, member: 19456&quot;]I&#039;m kind of hoping to find a Mercury dime or something along those lines that was made into a hat pin. I would never do that to a coin, EVER, but I will get one if I see it. I have more then 20 pins on my hat that I wear every day and I would like one that reflects my interest in Numismatics. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Here are some things I&#039;ve found...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This New Jersey State Quarter was nailed with a blow torch. I didn&#039;t do it but I saw it happen. It occured in 1999. The person who did it was going to melt it but I rescued it, and have had it ever since.</p><p><img src="http://images51.fotki.com/v1547/photos/3/348354/6136805/004Copy5-vi.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://images49.fotki.com/v1556/photos/3/348354/6136805/005-vi.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Don&#039;t know where I got this one, I found it in my closet earlier this year.</p><p><img src="http://images46.fotki.com/v1482/photos/3/348354/6136805/20092267-vi.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I don&#039;t know what the heck happened to this cent!

My favorite is the &quot;Run over by a truck&quot; Collection, of which the cent above is the centerpiece. It has grown since this picture was taken last summer.</p><p><img src="http://images47.fotki.com/v1474/photos/3/348354/6136805/20083004-vi.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
