It is only illegal to deface U.S. currency with the intent to alter its value.

@EducateInnovate I guess people don't remember the ye olde penny smashing machines that they used to have at some places that would roll a penny into an embossed souvenir.

@htomerif We still have those at rest stops all over the Northeast.

[japanesepoptart]

It isn't illegal. There is a law in place specifically stating that defacing money in a destructive manner is completely legal as long as it is in the name of education or science.
