    Description

    Uncirculated Delaware Quarter
    Shrunk by Ultra-strong Magnetic Fields!
    This is a genuine uncirculated Delaware state quarter that has been electromagnetically
    "shrunk"
    by extremely powerful magnetic fields. Using specialized equipment in my high voltage lab, I created invisible, but very intense, pulsed magnetic fields which "hammered" the outer rim of the coin inwards, evenly shrinking it
    to the diameter of a dime.
    The whole process only took
    20-25 millionths of a second, and was accompanied by an explosion and a blinding blue-white flash! Technical details will be provided in a one-page summary supplied with the coin. Shrunken coins are an amazing demonstration of the incredible power of ultrastrong magnetic fields.
    This is NOT magic or "Honey, I shrunk the kids" science fiction, it's high-power electromagnetism at work. Each coin requires its own hand-wound coil which is explosively destroyed during the shrinking process. A shrunken coin weighs the same as before - it's simply smaller in diameter and a bit thicker!

    other auctions.
    Amazingly, the coin's features remain beautifully preserved through the shrinking process! Each coin comes with a one-page explanation of the how the shrinking process works.
    Note: Send me an eBay message to substitute a different state or Eagle quarter.
    Shrunken coins are educational and unique - and they are only available from Stoneridge Engineering. Physics CAN be fun!
    A unique gift for the collector or amateur scientist on your list!
