    in a vise, with just the right clamping pressure on the edge and I shatter those puppies...oh and the coin flops and bounces on the concrete floor like a dying fish, until i step on it. image



    another way is with a PVC pipe cutter (the hend held cable kind) in a vise. precise, but takes a wee bit more time

  • I just run them through my table saw.

    Rip off the edges and it's piece of cake.

    No damage and I can run off a dozen or so in 5 minutes or less. image
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."
    John Marnard Keynes, The Economic Consequences of the Peace, 1920, page 235ff
