Years ago, I did a little coin collecting and amassed over 5,000 Wheat pennies. I also have been throwing my spare change in a bucket for years and have a huge stash of coins. I have been tempted to take them to one of those coin machines where you dump them in and get bills. Then, I thought Id like to save a lot of them for my grandkids.
However, these coins take up a lot of room and they are heavy. Fill up a bank sack with coins and you will see what I mean. So, I was thinking I could fill old socks with coins and put them in my Dynaudio speaker stands (or just dump them in).
It would add weight to the stand and be a nice out of the way place to store them. If packed tightly enough, they should not jingle and will be cleaner and easier than sand or lead shot.
Has anyone tried this? Any ideas on how it might effect the sound?
