Edible clads.

I once started a collection of chocolate coins. I especially liked current coins which
were actually foiled wrapped candy. It sure seemed right that a clad fantasy should
also be clad. I gave up on the set because I feared storage would be overly difficult
and had a sweet tooth at the time.

There have been those who seek toilet seats made of them, bathing with them, and
even their uses in the bedroom. So who eats coins or collections?

Anyone collect chocolate coins and have any storage tips? Any opinions?

I've got a 4" chocolate Kennedy half...

I like quarters, they're crunchier.

A friend of mine who does not collect coins accompanied me to a show once. He brought a chocolate coin in a foil St. Gaudens wrapper. Every time I would examine a coin in a dealer's inventory, he'd pull out his chocolate coin and in all seriousness proclaimed that "his is better." It got a laugh out of a few dealers.

After a while though it started to melt and he had to eat it.

My wife and kids got me a set of chocolate coins a few Christmas ago. Huge, like 4 inches in diameter, St Gaudens, Lincoln and Kenndy. I knew I wasn't going to eat them becuse I thought they were too neat. I used to keep it on my desk but it drove the kids nuts!

They kept asking when I was going to eat it, why I hadn't eaten it yet, told me how good it probably was and that there was surely enough for everyone and on and on. I finally moved it to the bedroom.


Edited to fix most of the spelling.

They'd probably foil wrap mints shaped like coins too, if they could figure what mint mark to use.

If they have a mint mark, does that mean there's a Perppermint Pattie inside?

I still remember when I was a kid looking in the candy section of the drug store for the gold foil wrapped chochlate coins in the yellow stringy bag.

I wonder if they still have those ?
