Dropping coins...?

[Axlrose]

One thing I remember long ago during those infamous "...only a bit longer. What the?!? Is that the sunrise?!?" jam sessions at the giant fort in Frontier Mountains was a monk in our group dropping his silver and copper coins onto the ground and allowing me to become dead weight taking it back home. I remember the coins appeared as a shiny plus (+) on the group, similar in color to the coins themselves. So on a whim, I decided to (attempt to) drop coins and they stayed glued to the cursor.

Is there a way to drop coins onto the ground? Or was this removed perhaps as a way to void potential RMT platinum swapping?

Just curious.
