#39: Wiped Clean
Coins aren’t supposed to lose their shape and texture over time – unless they’re left in the clothes dryer! This person washed his pants with some change left in the pockets, and as it turns out, these coins got stuck in the dryer. We don’t know how long it was before he found them, but it was long enough to make them completely distorted.

You can barely recognize the marks on the coins, so I wonder if a professional would be able to tell how much money he’s got there. Clearly, he can’t use them at a store, but would these be worth something for a collector? It’s interesting to see how not only did the markings fade, but the coins have changed texture and become smooth!
