now what to do with it --can't roll it and turn it in since the local banks require that your name be placed on the rolls when deposited ( do not want my name linked to smutty stuff --since I live in a "small town" tongues wag a mile a minute here)--can't turn it in loose since the tellers at the local banks are all female and know me and the wife well --and they most likely would be highly "offended'-- heck I got em all on good terms , so I do not want to mess that up. -- so looks like I'm stuck with it --unless I ditch it when in jacksonville some time .

you folks run across stuff like this often ?- this is the "first" defaced by smut one I found like this :tongue3:

no pic of it for obvious reasons * do not want to be banned.

I'd like to buy a vowel. How about a U. Sweet yes okay, okay. How about a S. Oh my god. I'm so good at this game. I'd like to buy another vowel cause I'm still not sure about the word. Um how about an A. Wow I can't believe it. I'd like to solve the puzzle. Munch kitty. Lol

what's the first word before the P? That's the one I'm still trying to figure out.

Something offensive makes it harder to spend. Just put in a roll and mark 65-59 on it and give it to your dump bank. Let some other enthusiatic CRHer get it. I would love to give that to another fellow CRHer. Let them think long about how to dispose of it. ;D

Ok.. I get it.. there were two dashes before the E so I thought there were two letters before.

Meow...

Anyway, I was about to say "just wipe the writing off" when I reread the post, and saw the word "stamped". Wierd. Seems like a big waste of time. Can you post a photo (perhaps with a couple of letters blocked out)?

How about you take it to the bank and explain how you got it and that you'd like to bring it to their attention so it gets out of circulation. They can send it to wherever they send damaged coins. I think they'd thank you! Unfortunately, they've probably seen similar things before.

I really don't see what the big deal is. I say turn the coin in with your other coins in a roll. I doubt the tellers are going to search all the coins' obverses and reverses anyway. But even if they see the slogan, if the tellers know you and know you are a CRHer, they are not going to think you put that slogan on the coin.

The tellers are probably not going to be offended by reading that slogan anyway. It is not like you are going up to them and saying it to their face. Most likely those tellers have verbalized that statement to their husbands or boyfriends a time or two anyway.

Anyone who has watched an R rated movie has heard much worse. I have seen dollar bills with much more scandalous writings on them and I went ahead and spent them.

Just my opinion.

Really? There's a time and a place for everything, but if you find offensive additions to money, in my opinion, the right thing to do is to take them out of circulation so others don't have to run into them. (You're going to the bank anyway!) I may expect such things in R rated movies (actually, not in the ones I've watched), but I don't expect to find such things as change. Ivan wanted to know how he should get rid of it without someone thinking he was the "author", and I think he had the right feel for the situation. Instead of passing it along, better to end it's circulation now. I'm not a prude, I'm a mom, and I don't want either my kids or myself to be handed such money, and I'm sure the bank's reaction would be to return it to be destroyed. (Ivan, maybe you could chat with your favorite teller about how they deal with such things and let us know what they say.)
Sorry if I sound preachy, but as so many detectorists get rid of trash they find on the beach or in the parks, so should CRHs, but you don't have to throw them out, just exchange them at the bank! Making the world a better place, one good deed at a time!

Lightly take the grinding wheel to it. Deface the defacement so that it is no longer readable.

Ivan, if the coin was stamped across the face, all capital letters about a quarter inch, can't really remember the date, but think it was from the '70s, I found one with the same words a couple of years ago. Missing letters are two vowels and two consinants . I dumped it in a $1K bag in Brunswick, GA.

mine was found in Callahan , Florida - A BIT DOWN FROM BRUNSWICK , GA --who knows might be the same darn one

Sounds EXACTLY like the one I found. I was thinking '74, but just couldn't be certain. Makes you wonder... what route lead it from Brunswick to Callahan? The bank allowed me to deposit sealed $1K bags of coin, didn't count 'em, just had me borrow the cart, haul 'em in, and unload them in the vault and stack them against the wall. Tellers told me they just shipped them out. Loomis was the carrier.
