The following picture was my first slide in the presentation. It from the old days when pterodactyls still roamed the skies, (presentations these days are a little easier with PowerPoint - but kinda lack the character of hand drawn slides).
Next, we'll enjoy pictures that people like you have emailed me.
Submit your amazing coin stacking pictures.
Note: All stacks of coins were done without any glue. Only the weight of the coins provides the support. Enjoy the pictures. Coin Stacking is a fun hobby for kids, college students and adults.
