Are these eyedropper glasses? Is that what I found here? Found by googling "how many ways are there to apologize in Japanese" and this was halfway down into the "If you have seriously hosed up and you are also the president of a company apologize like this" I don't know if it's related at all. Maybe these eyeglasses/syrup combos blinded everyone in the 80s and someone had to break out the ultimate apology.

It's an example of chindogu, which is a Japanese humor thing where people come up with goofy semi-practical inventions for laughs. Outside Japan it's often presented out of context such that non-Japanese people don't realize the inventions are supposed to be silly.

Funny you should ask, because not only did all the flyers the guy have around explain that what he was doing was not illegla, but a couple people asked him while I was hanging around.

What it boils down to is that as long as you're not trying to make it look like another denomination, or promote something commercially, than it's fine. All his stamp says is something like,
"Take money out of politics!"

If defacing currency in any way was illegal, than all of those penny smashers you see at tourist attractions would be illegal.

Edit: And there's a bunch of videos of him on Youtube taken by other people. Here's one that's over five minutes long, with an even goofier hat!

Defacing currency is illegal in most Commonwealth countries, which I think is where people get it from. Gotta preserve those images of the Queen, yo.

I looked it up after that post and it seems that it is illegal, if the currency in question is rendered unfit for circulation.

quote:

Defacement of Currency

Defacement of currency is a violation of Title 18, Section 333 of the United States Code. Under this provision, currency defacement is generally defined as follows: Whoever mutilates, cuts, disfigures, perforates, unites or cements together, or does any other thing to any bank bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt issued by any national banking association, Federal Reserve Bank, or Federal Reserve System, with intent to render such item(s) unfit to be reissued, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.

Defacement of currency in such a way that it is made unfit for circulation comes under the jurisdiction of the United States Secret Service. The United States Secret Service web address is https://www.secretservice.gov.

In countries where it's illegal, those penny crushers swap out the coin for a blank bit of copper.

It used to be illegal in the UK, but isn't any more.

An old friend of mine is part of a group that goes around collecting those crushed coins. There are websites that chart the different locations of the machines and the different stamps they put on them. She was really into it.

You actually have to pay (put other money) in (in the US typically $1) to operate the machine. So $1.01 gives you a mashed sliver of copper worth about $0.015

If it helps explain why the number 4800 at all, I'm almost positive this mural is at 4800 Market st. If nothing else, it is definitely on 48th. I'm pretty sure it's a quasi-religious based abstinence message, too.
