axlrosen sends along a very interesting set of penny architecture photos which then links to two other galleries of coin stacking wonderment.

Smart people with too much time on their hands?

I don't think I have that much money in my name, let alone in coins to stack.

Waycool!
Any art intrigues Capnhowdy. This is proof art can be created from any material..........just add imagination, sprinkle with talent and BAM! - Art.

These images, to some, Would redefine the term: "waste of time and money".....
I bet Rainman could tell you how many coins were there at a glance. Definitely. :cool:

No it would need more of an overhang on top.

Isn't there a mental condition with compulsive stacking?

There's not only a mental condition there's a website and a world champion.

The first thing I thought of when I saw this was the Monty Python sketch about "The Society for Putting Things on Top of Other Things".

Hmm,the last picture is made of swedish 5:s.. Big 1 1/8 inch coins.
But I don't think I try that anyway.. :worried:
Even though I have a jar full of tens.. (those smaller golden things lying around on the table).
