Hey Guys!
Enjoying my first day off since last Friday! I also thought I would include some basic updates! So first off the Coinstar machine let me down. I only found a couple U.S. modern coins that were really messed up, and this little jerk.

The front of plastic cent |

The back of the plastic cent |
This is one of those plastic cents that come from a game like Monopoly. I have seen several at my job site and they never cease to annoy me. There is this mechanical pony in the store that I work at that children can ride for a cent. Sadly there is always someone with the bright idea to try and force one of these things down its gullet, and then the pony becomes "sick" for a couple of days.
I also found this nickel that has red tarnishing or the equivalent covering parts of the obverse.

Nickel with Red Varnish |
Does anyone know what this red stuff is and how it gets on the nickel? I personally think the effect is really cool but I have not been able to uncover the cause. I am going to go and research this some more and see if I can dig something up.
Have a great day everyone and happy collecting!
