A Coin, Medallion? Geez, don't we make anything in th U.S.A. anymore. Just having them shipped from India what with the weight has to cost more than making them.

Never saw one this fancy though.

Actually a round manhole cover is not the only shape that cannot fall through its own hole:

"woman-hole cover" sounds obscene for some reason.

Everyone always gets the answer wrong.

Manhole covers are round simply because manholes are round. Sheeeeesh.
