Coins and 'pipe' graffiti

Sylvestius

Can't spell graffiti, but never mind.


Anyone come across those coins where someone has decided to add in a pipe? I once had one of King George IV where someone had etched him a pipe in and i found it highly amusing. Nice piece of contemporary political feeling i thought.

But over at Cointalk forums someone has just gone and posted the king of them all!

I've only seen one other coin like it ... and it was Queen Victoria smoking a pipe

I have some US coins somewhere that someone has added a "Joint" to the head. Also I have found a few colonial issues of Britain and France with the Monarchs picture eather Xed out or otherwise defaced. Interesting theme for a side collection.
