<p>[QUOTE="VistaCruiser69, post: 25415816, member: 107016"]We used to do stuff to pennies too, when I was a kid. A friend of mine's father had a sand blaster, so that was something we'd do. Another was shooting them with bb and pellet guns. We would also shine tarnished pennies with pencil erasers, the ink pen erasers used to really get them shiny. I think the last thing we did was place them on the ground, step on them and then drag them across the cement. That was a magic trick to us, because doing so would change the color to shiny aluminum color, the part that scrapped against the cement.</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess the only thing left to do with pennies that may have never been done is to take a neatly stacked 50 pennies, bond them all together with liquid nails or gorilla glue and then slip them into a penny roller and then turn it into the bank. Who knows, that could be a new error from the mint.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
