Pretty incredible — this Chicago couple wanted to redo the floor in their bedroom, and decided to do it with pennies! Check out the story and pictures on their website, The Penny Floor, because they’re pretty incredible.
Ryan Lange and Emily Belden glued nearly 60,000 pennies to the floor BY HAND.

The pennies are worth more than the $600 face value — these folks actually glued down two rare pennies instead of cashing them in!
It looks pretty cool, but it’s not something I’d consider as a decor point.









It’s beautiful, but not sure I could get past the inherent dirtiness of coins. Maybe if they were all freshly minted
@MoneyMateKate: I think they said they used a clear topcoat on it. But I can see that getting super-dirty, too.
