Scrubby Posted October 19, 2013 Hey guys, Im putting together an art piece (slowly) at the moment building a life size sculpture of an aboriginal lady and her baby. I feel using our old copper(pennys) currency represents a very deep emotion, particularly given the period the coins were used. Im happy to trade for any old unwanted hoards you might have and would greatly appreciate donations. I feel like its a worthy project and would love for some of you guys to get on board. ive already acquired about 800 coins but thats it. peace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paradox Posted October 20, 2013 how about shells may be more fitting, anyhow good luck with it. i think you might be missing the point to the penny thing man.. sounds like a cool project scrubby, i'd like to help out but i only have about 20 pennies & they're part of a collection my grandpa gave me so a bit sentimental, sorry bro, good luck, can't wait to see it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

planthelper Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) nice project, I assume you use the different patina of the copper coins, to good effect. keep asking around, surly some people have jars full of them still hanging around. http://www.decimalcoins.com/ Edited October 20, 2013 by planthelper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
