Comment Comment by convFixb I did the back-of-envelope calculation [and now you have to read it :)]:A slug about 2 inches in diameter, 1/4 inch thick, is worth about 1 USD at today's copper price (weight = 1/4 pound).So it might almost, but not quite, work as coinage. Maybe in a very poor country populated by body-builders. parent convFixb 2 years ago
