[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2416917, member: 15929"]AI think the term "dryer coin" is used not to indicate that the coin was stuck in the portion of the dry where the clothing goes but stuck in the second layer of the dryer drum where the public has no access. I do not know the particular mechanics but a coin stuck in such a position could endlessly roll with each turn of the drum. I think that the term was coin by folks that work repairing laundromat dryers which would give them access to parts of the machine that the public does not have. Spooning, on the other hand might not impart such an even surface since each smack of the spoon creates a flat spot. Having said that, does it really matter what it's called since the edge has been modified by some mechanical means which is what both terms imply?[/QUOTE]
