Dryer coin vs spooned coin

IDK this coin is perfectly round not a mark on it. It looks like die crack around it! Someone at some point in time may have had it in a press or something but they would have had to be a machinist looks to me like.

Hello I’m not here to judge anyone’s personal thoughts, opinions, or examples. Just wants to share: in my late teens my ex-fiancé worked for an appliance company ( before Lowe’s, HD existed) her serviced what else but washer/dryers. The change he’d bring home did not look exactly like these coins some thin, uneven, rolled but not thick but thin. I heard about spooning. So I gave it a try holding a dime in my hand really wasn’t very successful by tapping on the edges to get it to round off tried putting it in a little vase try to tap the center of it either with a spoon a very small hammer like object and so on having it in like a vice caused the dime to bed did the edges attempt to smooth out by tapping the edges a little bit but you still saw the ridges now this is just my personal experience you’re all welcome to decide for yourselves of what you all may think I wish I kept them to show you pictures of them however it was over 30 years ago good luck with your search

I have some spare punctuation and a shift-key for you...

I mentioned "spooning" to a student I had in a chemistry class and he showed up the next week with a "spooned" quarter that he made with a hammer. No reeding left on the edges.
