<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2890887, member: 24314&quot;]When the inner drum is rotating, I imagine with all that heat <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie52" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie52" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> in about five years <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> it would produce a &quot;dryer coin.&quot;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> During those five years, the machine would make an occasional rattle sound.</p><p><br /></p><p>Or...When the inner drum is rotating and a coin falls out (that&#039;s where this process must start if by accident) due to centrifugal forces, the coin will be on a non-moving part of the dryer.&nbsp; The only way an edge could get turned up is if the space between the moving drum and the outer wall is so close together that the edges of a cent are constantly abraded.&nbsp; Anything thicker than a cent would make noise or not fit.&nbsp; A dime should just lay there unaffected!&nbsp; I&#039;ve never seen a &quot;dryer dime&quot; yet they must be very common.&nbsp; I&#039;ve never seen a &quot;dryer quarter, nickel, or half a dollar&quot; either.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>So only cents occur in a 100 (?) to one ratio?&nbsp; Additionally, I can see no reason to spoon that many cents unless they were done as a step to make &quot;coin art&quot; or to fake a mint error.&nbsp; BTW, most of these dryer cents have edges that look just like the upturned, machine-made (not washing machine-made) encased cents.&nbsp; Interesting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
