[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 3931138, member: 27832"]Or you could, you know, put some double-sided tape on the magnet. Shouldn't we be spending less time figuring out how new posters might be trying to deceive us, and more time figuring out how what they're describing might be possible? I still don't think we'd dismissed the "drill out and insert a steel wire" possibility for the previous coin. I've seen plenty of trolls come and go here. The "magnetic war nickel" poster didn't follow [I]any[/I] of the standard trolling patterns (rejecting reasonable suggestions, "I'm going to send this right off to PCGS and show you all", "yes but what if a planchet for this obscure foreign coin somehow slipped into a US mint production run", etc.) -- and yet, it looks like we've run her off. I don't think this was one of the forum's better moments.[/QUOTE]
