I thought that mutilating currency was illegal in Canada. Are these
planchette machines or are they placed by a bunch of outlaw gypsies who
simply
laugh at the thought of hard time making little rocks out of big rocks
as a
punishment for this heinous crime.

The Ferry machines take in Canadian coins (.51) and slip in a US coin
(zinc or copper) to be smashed! It is LEGAL to smash US coins in Canada

Good idea, but I believe the only thing I have ever seen was
"Knott's Scary Farm" and it was in a machine with "Knott's Berry
Farm" and "Knott's Merry Farm" at the Candy Kitchen, and available
all year round. If anyone finds something else, I'd be interested
in one!
