I'm curious on what others do with their dirty modern coins.
Do you collect them and when you have a huge stack take them to a bank or stick them in jars like a mate of mine and never spend them?
Are there rules around these things? (if there is I'm sure I will get a hate email....)
I do what I call 'Laundering' of my coins.
I use hot soapy water to get rid of the dirt to make them as respectable as possible. Then at lunch time I head down to the local Coke vending machines, pop in $2 of dirty coins, press eject, presto, clean $2 coin comes out. Money is now laundered!
My kids love it, we have a jar with stacks of $2 coins. We dip into when we want to do something special, like get takeaway or ice creams down the local shops![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Anyway, let me know
