That's approximately eight million dimes, and even despite the help of vacuums, some had to be picked up by hand.

    Some workers even ended up painstakingly picking up the dimes one at a time by hand and dumping them into one of the vacuum cleaners.

    This cannot possibly be cost effective.

        I like your unit of currency. Given it’s a total cluster fuck I’ll suggest it as the new EU digital currency. But given England left nobody will vote for this.

      Dimes are ferrous. I use them as wargaming bases for my squads of 6mm soldiers.
