What a great way to save money! They say the penny is worth more than the copper that's used to make it. Hollow it out I say...

Very cool, until you spend it by accident:

"The year was 1953. An innocent newsboy
discovered an unusual coin that just didn't
"sound" right in this pocket. Upon greater
examination, it was discovered that this was
no regular nickel, but had been hollowed out
and a sheet of microfilm had been hidden
inside. That nickel, and the encapsulated
microfilm, was the downfall for Colonel
Vilyam Fisher, and his entire spy ring."

I can just see col. Fisher trying to open all his nickles

Solid, crap... solid, crap... solid, crap...

I had one of those as a kid but the back was flexable and the front had a hole in it so you could squirt water from it
