西奥多·尼科尔斯致力于创造“厚镍币”(thnickels),这是一种比普通镍币更厚、更有分量的硬币,旨在激发尊重,起因是他曾遭遇入室盗窃,小偷嘲笑他袋子里的镍币而让他蒙羞。他已将车库改造成铸币厂,亲自监督生产。西奥多认为普通的镍币太薄,他热衷于提供更厚重的硬币。他甚至亲自设计了这些硬币,并欢迎积极的反馈。起初,他通过印发传单获得了成功,这让他的孙子大吃一惊。最近,他合作推出了厚镍币的预订,但名额有限。目前,西奥多正寻求帮助,解决与一位邻居的纠纷:这位邻居受伤了,现在因为硬币的事情和他“闹别扭”,包括未归还的厚镍币原型。他鼓励大家通过他的“打印传单”活动来宣传厚镍币,可以通过电子邮件或电话联系他进行咨询或预订。他的座右铭是“NUMMOS CRASSIORES OMNIBUS”(人人拥有更厚的硬币)。

Hacker News上热议“厚镍币”(Thick Nickels),这是一种来自thick-coins.net的看似虚构产品。评论者们争论这种重型硬币在现实世界中的潜在应用,有人建议它可以增强自卫时的拳击力量,也有人指出该产品的幽默性,并将其归因于喜剧演员艾伦·瓦格纳(Alan Wagner)。讨论深入到关于硬币卷可以增强拳击力量的都市传说,以及增加质量以增加力量的物理学原理。一条关于错过的预购订单的评论引发了一个双关语。最后,谈话转向了该网站出乎意料的快速加载速度,幽默地将其归因于“FrontPage 98”,并引发了对经典网页设计美学的怀旧反思,认为这种美学可能卷土重来。

Updated 4/30/2025: I have received hundreds of e-Mails from my flyer. I told my grandson that flyers still work in this day and age. He said societal media is the only way, but I was right. And he is still very thin. Thank you all for the interest, I will be in touch.

Thnickels

holding two thick coins

Nickels are too thin we need a much heftier coin. That is why I am making thicker coins in my new minting facility.

How It All Got Started

Some burglars recently entered my garage to pilfer my things. The only weapon nearby was a bag of nickels, which I brandished at the ruffians.

two nickels was not an effective weapon

The burglars laughed at me about the slight bag of coins. They did not respect me or fear my purse.

They stole the nickels and my best push broom. I have never felt so humiliated.

That's when I resolved to NEVER be disrespected about my pocketchange again.

Introducing: Thicker Coins

My new coins have a much meatier handfeel when compared to currency from the U.S. Mint.

The enhanced weight is both satisfying to good guys and threatening to bad guys.

wimpy nickel vs beefy thnickel

You can see in the photograph above how pathetically thin a regular "nickel" is between my fingers.

The "thnickel" is substantial and solid, there is much more coin per coin.

Feel free to review my designs below. I welcome feedback on the designs as long as it is positive and respectful of me.

The Mint

I have converted my garage into a mint. I am dedicated to producing enough thnickels for everyone in need of respect.

My new state of some art facility is equipped with several tools and a powerful workhorse (me)!

It is coining time.

Please help spread the word about my coins.
