This would be a coin with, on one side, a parabolic dish. The other side would be decorated as usual. The die for the coin would have to be made differently (in the us at least) - instead of just lathing it out, they will have to polish the die.
This parabolic currency would be interesting.
Different

These might attain a high coinage and then become popular with collectors. |
