Even better version here: • Silver crystals growin...
A copper penny is added to a dish containing silver nitrate. The silver ions react with the copper metal in a single replacement reaction to produce aqueous copper ions and long, beautiful silver crystals.

Edit: I made a better version which also explains what's happening!!!! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eNSFnNCe37LJmnU.html ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ Copper metal (from the penny) reacts with silver nitrate in the solution. A single replacement reaction happens, forming silver crystals and copper nitrate in solution! Cu + 2 AgNO3 ➡️ Cu(NO3)2 + 2 Ag

In college (50+ yrs ago) chem lab, me and my buddy placed a penny in a 10 ml beaker + 5 ml conc HNO3 under the hood for 60-70 seconds. Then hit it with a shot of di water to stop the reaction. The penny was then removed, rinsed off and was now the thickness, diameter and weight of a dime. This was then scaled up. The vending machines and pay phones were filled with pennies for a couple months…..

It's a displacement reaction. Copper being more reactive than silver displaces the latter out of solution as metallic silver which is seen here to grow as crystals on the copper penny. It's classified as a redox reaction. Later the solution around the penny would turn blue due to formation of copper(II)sulfate

The copper in the coin is more reactive than the silver 'dissolved' in the liquid. The copper then 'dissolves' and the 'dissolved' silver becomes metal crystals (solid metal). That's about as simple as I can explain it.

@@ms.pirate You should learn the difference between fiat paper/copper-zinc, etc. currency and actual money with recognized nationwide value. A penny and conversely a stack of hundred dollar bills are backed by what? If someone came into a store that you owned with a price of cotton/paper mix that looked like a government note, would you take it? Before you answer with what you think is a sound argument about fist being backed by the government, take a moment to consider the 30-700% inflation we're experiencing band ask yourself who-what that is the result of. If you say Putin, you're beyond help. I say that with all due respect, sincerely.

In the US, modern pennies are only copper plated, so if you react the zinc out of the center you can pretty easily do the silver/copper exchange and end up with a little bit of silver in blue-green liquid. Looks cooler under a microscope though.
