    they'd have to survive the heat
    the pressure from rolling to sheet
    cutting around them
    the pressure of striking, which, as we know, deforms the metal all the way through the coin.
    You can smash those RFID chips with a hammer.



    then PH is right.


    I'd take a $600 sale, though, without a drink.
