Looking for a gaff coin

Postby kitaristi0 » Aug 30th, '07, 21:47



Is there in existence a gaff coin made of lighter metal or something else that would make it easy/easy-ish to bend with your bare hands? Kind of like a Psi-Flexion nail except obviously a coin, not a nail.


Edit: Would making your own coins (for example a 10p made out of some soft metal so it can be bent) even be legal?

some people have had mileage from coins made from solder metal in molds, some clays can work it depends on how examinable you want it to be.

I had a look around and most reviews seemed to be pretty negative. And for £34 it would have to be really really good.
