How To Making things hidden in coins. EDC

Very cool.
I've always been fascinated by the OSS SOE and French resistance clandestine tools and or weapons from ww2 , things like this were certainly used.
I'm not sure about a wire saw but definitely other things hidden in or disguised as coins in the books I read as a kid.
Of course being a 6th grade kid the pictures stayed with me but the actual information is long forgotten.

Forum friends showed me a photo of a sharpener made from an old Soviet coins

I tried to find a more suitable coin for the sharpener.

When I was making a coin saw, I also had paintings from French novels in my head - Count of Montecristo
and Les Miserables.
 
Somewhere in the back of my head, I seem to remember a hollow coin, I think a nickel.
Some paperboy back in the 30s found it in change from customers.
Had a piece of microfilm in it.
May have been the 40s.
Used to be a serious part of tradecraft, oss and cia were deep into that shit

Thank! I found an article on Wikipedia about this - Hollow Nickel Case. I will definitely make a coin container! You made the post just in time. I thought that the transmission of information in material objects was an outdated technique - now there is the Internet, but on August 11 I read an article that a foreign intelligence agent was caught in Ukraine who was carrying information in candy.

My last coin knife became a real EDC for me. Using simple tools, I managed to hide two springs and a blade in the coin. I realized that the most important thing with switch knives is the sound.
 
My sister is indifferent to my knives, but when I made the coin knife style keychain she finally said "wow!"
 
To always be able to sew something, you can carry such a coin with you. I haven't worn it yet. Just made.
