Unc. Washington Dollar shrunk to diameter of a nickel!

 

Genuine Uncirculated Washington Dollar - SHRUNK to the Diameter of a Nickel! This is a genuine uncirculated Washington dollar that has been physically "shrunk" to the diameter of a nickel by ultrastrong magnetic fields! In my high voltage lab, I create an invisible, but extremely powerful, pulsed magnetic field which evenly "hammers" the outer rim of the coin, SQUEEZING the coin inward so that it shrinks to the diameter of a nickel. The only thing that "touches" and reshapes the coin are powerful, invisible magnetic fields! The whole process occurs within a blink of an eye (~20 millionths of a second) and is accompanied by an explosion and a brilliant blue-white flash! You can read all the technical details Here.   This is NOT magic or science fiction - it's high-powered electromagnetism at work. Each coin requires its own hand-wound coil which is explosively destroyed during the shrinking process. The miniaturized coin still weighs the same as before – it's simply smaller in diameter and somewhat thicker! Amazingly, the coin's features are beautifully preserved through the shrinking process!  Actual coin received may vary somewhat (i.e., year or mintmark) from the coin shown in the pictures. Each coin comes with a one-page explanation of the how the shrinking process works. A unique and educational object - Physics CAN be fun!
