rumor has it that HITLER AND THE SS USE" US COINS" FOR SPIES WITH INITIALS CARVED INTO THE COIN AND THE CONTACT PERSON KNEW THEM SUCH AS( kh sk kk) THE SPIES WOULD MEET AND EXCHANGE THE COINS AND IF THEY DIDNT KNOW THE US COIN I REMEMBER MY GRANDFATHER TALKING ABOUT SPIES IN NEW YORK IN 1939 -1941 AND HOW SOME COMMUNICATED I REALLY AM CURIOUS ABOUT THIS SINCE I HAVE 3 COINS ALL WITH THE SAME EXACT INITIALS CARVED IN THE BUST NO DIFFERENCE IN THE SHAPE OR CARING \
There was a spy who used a hollowed out nickel, but he was a Russian. The FBI's website has information on him.
In New York City, there were also spies from Russian enclaves like Brighton Beach who took the BMT to Coney Island, patronized the stand-up hot dog joints, and met new recruits just off the boat. One would squirt a code on the bun, the other would casually glance over, then the first would jam the bun together and start chowing down. Not a word was spoken. A simple blob of mustard meant "follow me" but ketchup meant "you've been spotted..." I don't know what relish and onion meant.
