Laundering money

If you need proof that the copper plate on the American penny is thin, just look at what one trip through the washing machine did to this one. Excuse me but your zinc is showing.

Ha! That's interesting!!! Have no idea how many coins go through our washing machine.... Never thought to check them when they came out.

Interesting. Definitely not much copper, but enough to cost more to make it than one cent.

LOL... fun shot.
