<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Penny Lady®, post: 1284678, member: 16948&quot;]Thanks everyone.&nbsp; I am informed that the teapots were made from various coins (barber dimes, Lincoln cents, etc.) at a prison in western&nbsp; Massachusetts as an inmate industry. and that there originally was a little card&nbsp; that went with them that explained what they were and how they were made.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Brian, yes I have an Indian cent and large cent that were most likely turned into a pie cutter or gear.&nbsp; I also have an 1864-L Indian cent that someone engrailed the rim possibly as a jewelry piece, and some really neat rare Indian cent &quot;Frying Pans.&quot;&nbsp; And one of my favorite Indian cent exonumia is a wonderful original turn-of-the-century watch fob. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://bluccphotos.com/clients/charmy/3-12-10/Images/29.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://bluccphotos.com/clients/charmy/lb-2-2010/web/Images/15.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://bluccphotos.com/clients/charmy/webedits/Images/14.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://bluccphotos.com/clients/charmy/9-28-10/Images/42.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://bluccphotos.com/clients/charmy/9-28-10/Images/43.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://bluccphotos.com/clients/charmy/4-5-10/web/Images/8.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
