This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Why, because they tear a giant hole in your pocket with the weight so you know you have no coins in there? ;)

Japan made all their coins identifiable by touch as well. There's a small and big one, then for the 4 with similar sizes 2 have milled edges and 2 have holes.
