Obama pardons a man who was convicted of mutilating

Why will win the U.S. President's attention? Forgives Ronald Lee Foster Lancaster's Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, received probation, a fine of 20 yuan. This is a 9-amnesty, pardon President Obama the first set. Characteristics of the New York Times pardon all the "small-scale crimes committed many years ago", but 4 cases of crimes involving cocaine. Perhaps the damage is there coin looks very small-scale manufacture of cocaine.

I want to know what is the Ronald Lee Foster Manchester is also used for coins? From CoinTalk:

I looked at, but can not understand what he has done to the coin. I do not know that he was the first penny to produce the notorious "Lincoln Kennedy look?" A man who back in 1960 to use the machine to shave pence coin-sized vending machine, and through them. Now what is the "coin cut" and this guy do?

In 1963, he received income for the camp Lejeune, North Carolina, he said, he and 16 others hatched a plan, cut into coins penny so they could use their $ 82 vending machines in the ocean a month . But the Secret Service caught them ....
Ah, that reminds me. We have tried to Quarters - back when he was silver - into the circle. Step 1 is to beat with a spoon flatten and expand its advantage. No one has ever been in step 2, which will require some drilling.
