[QUOTE="daveydempsey, post: 398917, member: 22"]U.S. Title 18, Chapter 17, Section 331: Prohibits among other things, fraudulent alteration and mutilation of coins. This statue does not, however, prohibit the mutilation of coins if done without fraudulent intent if the mutilated coins are not used fraudulently. The arcade machines in amusement parks that press a Cent or Penny to make them elongated are quite legal. As are the defacing in the name of art, Nickles to make Hobo Nickels.[/QUOTE]
