Dhou I think - I found some Mexican Peso\'s in the parking lot of my apartment complex, and I think they\'re going to be the ones to get the treatment here shortly.

GRUMPH!
I was going to post my penny, but first I decided to give is a spray of testors dullcoat to seal it better once I use it tobuy something with (heehee, that will be humerous.). However, the purple ran, and ever since then I\'ve been too dispirited to repaint it. I will soon though!

Yeh, I\'ve used crazily painted coins to buy stuff, but it\'s never as fun as you think. I spend tons of time meticulously painting the coins with the ugliest colours I can find, washing \'em with brown and purple, putting gloss finishes on them, and, well.........I stand excitedly at the cash register, barely concealing my smug glee and girlish giggles, and the world weary retail shmoe just gives a cursory glance at the coins and puts \'em away. I sometimes want to scream: \"DAMN YOU Retail Ass, I gave you a freakin\' shiny green-purple coin!!! React, for christ sake, show some emotion!!! I wasted an hour of my life for the small satisfaction of handing you a messed up coin, and you don\'t even care!?!? Cruel world, am I that small?\"
Anywhoo, I found the perfect coin in my collection: An old, old Canadian penny, with good ol\' King George on it (whoever the hell he is....) I\'ve started it, but as it\'s so old, I\'m having trouble getting the detail, and his skin\'s a b**** to paint.

hmmm.
I didn\'t paint any coinage, just because I have much too much to paint as it is.
But now seeing your results, I think I will paint all my loose change.
Imagine the look of the cashiers face when I want to pay for that 1.00 candy bar with hand painted coins!!
lollol
Actually, pretty cool Dennismech, I can\'t wait to see the other submissions!

Imagine the look on the cashier\'s face when I try to pay for a computer with painted pennies! I\'ve got my work cut out for me! I think I\'ll just mail them to a sweatshop in china with a few dollars to cover the pay.

This took about 3 mins but im a procrastinator and waited till a day before new years. I thought he looked a bit drab in just a black suit so I gave him a pink stovetop hat and green suit.
Don\'t judge us too quickly. You posted this months before you got around to makeing it.

Dedwrekka, you have made my day! Ooh, I\'m happy again! I think I\'ll give up my evil schemes... nah
I think they should make pennies like this all the time, it\'d be much more interesting.
