Tough Economic Times Indeed

Shrunken Quarter on Normal Quarter

Even our quarters are shrinking! Literally.

Not really of course, but while doing some research on coins for my series of Economic Turnaround images, I found Bert Hickman’s absolutely mind-blowing store featuring all kinds of coins shrunken via High Voltage/Pulsed Power Engineering. The above image is a ‘may I be struck dead with Tesla lightning if I’m lying’ scan of the shrunken quarter I bought on top of a normal quarter.

Whoa.

    Wow that’s awesome. I’d love to see that done – the shrinking, not the scanning of coins hehe.
