4/13/2005: Coin architecture



axlrosen sends along a very interesting set of penny architecture photos which then links to two other galleries of coin stacking wonderment.

Smart people with too much time on their hands?

I don't think I have that much money in my name, let alone in coins to stack.

Waycool!
Any art intrigues Capnhowdy. This is proof art can be created from any material..........just add imagination, sprinkle with talent and BAM! - Art.

These images, to some, Would redefine the term: "waste of time and money".....
I bet Rainman could tell you how many coins were there at a glance. Definitely.

Isn't there a mental condition with compulsive stacking?

But I don't think I try that anyway..
