The Homer Simpson One Euro Coin

Neatorama reader Miguel Artime sent in this one: a special coin found in the cash register of a Spanish candy shop. It seems that someone decided
to, um, modify the 1 Euro coin featuring the face of King Juan Carlos I de Borbon y Borbon, King of Spain, into the less regal mug of Homer Simpson! The owner does not want to sell it because "it brings good luck."

Link [in Spanish] - Thanks Miguel!

That’s really funny, never seen such a modified euro. But I wonder about such funny things, there so many in the world. I wouldn’t sell this coin anyhow, because you won’t find any more of this coins, I think. The idea of modifying the coin is much too funny.

I checked out the pix at the hobo nickel society… One would have better luck meeting cruising chicks at a hamfest or geocaching meeting.
