    I removed a Morgan dollar from one of those plastic snap-cases the other day, opening it like an egg an letting the coin fall about 6 inches to the photoboard below. It bounced once and balanced itself on the rim.

    Well, given that I don't currently have a job, yea, I do have a lot of time on my hands. But not nearly as much as the guy who holds the record:
