Wondering what to do with your spare change? Here's an amusing way to do a garage floor. The pattern is fun, but unless they somehow sealed the polished coins, in X years my best guess is the coins will all migrate to a single tone.

Wow. I wonder how slick that is when it becomes wet.
That's amazing... people still use yahoo.
The new pocket change posters should consider doing the same

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Right?
Shoulda used slabbed coins.

The links don't work for me.

Been done many times over the last five years, hardly news anymore.
I've seen a car done over with Lincoln cents.
Now, on to the schlep who paid his municipal fines with a wheelbarrow of change...

There have been many of these 'coin paving/decorating' projects over the years.....Cheers, RickO
Variations have been posted before but I still enjoy seeing the different designs!
Yes, the dark side will be down.
Cute. Not quite sure of the purpose other than novelty. It's likely the coins will begin popping up as soon as a car rides over them, unless a top sealer is coated over the coins. As for dancing, similar problem.
Good idea! Legend could buy a lot of the "drecky" low end of problem, common coins that trade for slightly above melt on the market, crack it out, and use it for flooring.
