legal .... not so much :o

First off, it's illegal to destroy/deface any US Currency. Secondly, calling it a "microspoon" may be a copyright infringement on this person's product - Home - Micro Spoons & Jigs

You never laid pennies on a railroad track when you were a kid CP?

When I was a "kid", I could buy some tasty treats for a penny :p

Actually, I never even lived close to a railroad track until I was around 11 or 12 years old ... and I wasn't allowed off my street until I was in my teens. Lived with my Grandparents from 5th grade until I came home from the Army
I heard about putting coins on a railroad track, and trains running over them & flattening them out (which my homies & I thought would be "cool") ... but, I also heard rumors that it "could" cause the train to derail :p so I never gave it a second thought.

Actually I wouldn't even worry about the penny and using it. Six Flags, Disney, busch gardens and many other biggies have machines where you put in a penny spin the crank and it flattens the penny and puts the logo from where you're at on the penny for a soveigner.

They haven't been busted for defiling currency yet so a couple for fishing lures I dont' think would be a big deal.

When I was a kid penny candy was a penny too!... and some were 2 for a penny! A little 6 oz. bottle of Coke was 6 cents and the machine would only take a nickel and a penny and wouldn't make change!

My uncle took me and my 2 brothers down to the train tracks and gave us 5 pennies each to put on the RR tracks, the we waited for the 1:11 (the time the train passed by). The train came by and rolled them out real nice and thin, we had to do some lookin' for some of them... but we found them all. Thank goodness it didn't derail the train!!!:D I wish I still had those pennies, but I will always have the memory!

I think dimes would make better spoons, but you can buy Colorado and willow leaf blades for about the same price and they'll work even better!

I thought every one had flattened a penny on the RR track ... having spent my younger years close to 2 rail lines ... us kids nearly got our behinds warmed over putting "Coal Slag" on the track ... when a train ran over it you would get a big "Bang" .. so we thought the bigger the better "Bang" all most derailed the old switch engine (it was smaller and lighter) .. course us kids were on top of a "Cow Shed" and no one could see us (yea .. u know how that goes) .. one of the parents came out and "nabbed" us .. seems that the RR had called to get us stopped .... we never did that again seeing that Ol Switch Engine Rockin was enough to scare us into quitting .. course all our parents found out about it ... they saw we were all scared about it and I think no one got their "Butt Warmed"

About the "Cokes" I paid a nickle for a many one .. really don't remember the six cents ones ... thought they went straight to a dime ... thats when Pepsi really capitalized on the "Twice as much for a Nickle to" theme .. Course an RC Cola (Nehi) was 12 oz as well but they did not do the advertising that Pepsi did (both of them went to a dime when Coke did) ..
