The idea is to mint new coins that have a small hole in the
centre to receive a spindle, and have their outside edge
reformed as the teeth of a cog wheel.
Naturally the range of coins available would have to multiply,
to enable each denomination to have different dimensions and
teeth characteristics.
This will increase their variety of uses.
One side of the coin would present the customary currency
information, whilst the other would be reserved for its
engineering and size characteristics i.e. number and pitch of
teeth; radius; forms a connecting match with...
Uses: encourages children (and adults) to save and have a
renewed interest in making simple machines.
