I love coins with holes in 'em. Something about them just feels really foreign or something. Especially the ¥5 piece.

I miss the old Irish 50p though.

what is that? I can't even tell what it is. did you at least probe inside of it? what's in there? is it just fried dough, or is it filled with something? is it demonic?

clearly several scientific tests need to be performed on it to determine the nature of this object.

so would you say the english vending machines have to be smarter than their american counterparts? american vending machines only need to seperate and hold 4 types of money; nickles, dimes, quarters, and dollars.

It looks like the job of an english vending machine is much more complicated.

I absoloutely hate 5p coins thats for sure! I can barely touch them. Eugh.

(And £1 coins, standard. A handful of 10 or so feels sweeeeeeet.)

i made most of my big decisions when i was younger flipping them, for some reason i was under the impression that using any other coin, or disrespecting the decision of the pound, was sacrilege.
