Does anyone know if superglue would hold coins together?
The answer is Yes.
I worked on satellite communications and the space program, back in the 70's and early 80's at 3M. I would check out a bottle of glue from the "vault" and it was measured when we checked it back in to see how much I had used. It was called "Eastman 910", which is now called super glue. We didn't know what is was, but it was a fantastic product. Guess that's why I had a Secret Clearance.
It was used for ceramic plates and ceramic computer chips to see what the heat resistance would be before it would separate the parts.
As a teen I'd go to the mall and super glue a Quarter to the floor ,then sit on the bench and watch people try to pick it up..
I would think it will stick them together if they are cleaned first.

Regarding the use of CA glue as a suture - apparently the medical type is NOT the same as the Super Jet medium thickness used for R/C model airplane building. I cut myself with an X-Acto blade and figured I'd try closing the cut with it.
Whole -Lee - Schmidt! Stung and smoked - like adding a burn to the somewhat painless razor cut. Worked, but boy did it sting.
Some are better than others at cementing different materials. There are also very different viscosities. All are good at sticking your finger to multiple surfaces.
