I'm sorry, do you have change for this?

Saw video of it on the news this morning.

Chances are, that'll make the Unusual World Coins volume instead of Krause. (I just ordered a copy of the former).



Pardon me, sir, but do you have change for a manhole cover?

Come to think of it, if a big heavy cast iron manhole cover is almost impossible to lift, imagine what a piece of gold that size must be like.

Oh, you DO have change? Great. Where would you like my forklift driver to leave the coin?

if someone decided to turn that into a holey coin, I dont think I could afford the drillings

I CAN make change for that, but it would be in 1923 German Marks!

Whoever buys that first one, can they submit it to PCGS and get a "First Strike" designation on the slab?



Seriously though, a coin like that would have to be cast then milled I would think. If not, I would love to see the dies.

Next buyer gets #4, and not even NGC slabs "Fourth Castings".
