Remove meaningless sentence

Latest comment: 6 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I removed the following sentence from the end of the "Coins" section:

The 100-won coins have exactly the same shape as the U.S. quarter, the only difference is the composition, with the 100-won coin struck in cupronickel rather than the U.S. quarter's cupronickel-clad composition.^[1]

Reasons:

1) Of course it is the same shape, it is a round disc, as are 95% of the world's coins. Possibly the author meant they were the same size or same weight.

2) Many pairs of coins in different countries are indistinguishable. This causes problems for vending machine owners worldwide. One particular case is not noteworthy.
