Is this image of the samsquatch in the public domain, or did RCM legal drop the copyright ball by reproducing an image from the film in order to profit from it, without asking for permission from the rights holder?

I checked out the Big Foot privy coins yesterday when Hidalgo posted the link... And today every website I visit has ads for Provident Metals.

are you serious. A big foot privy?

I guess it fits tho with, SOME collectors who are into conspiracy theories and other weird oddities... but still this is really getting out of hand.

So while we are at it, can we get some other privy marks-

Star Wars
Trains
Dr Who
PS4
soccer

ok that will do, dear mints, please go ahead and get this going lol

As a West Virginian, I would suggest a Mothman privy mark.

It does not matter what the naysayers want to believe.

I now have an undeniable proof of Bigfoot:


Canadian-Maple-Bigfoot-Privy---Can-You-Believe-It?

Canadian-Maple-Bigfoot-Privy---Can-You-Believe-It?

Canadian-Maple-Bigfoot-Privy---Can-You-Believe-It?

Canadian-Maple-Bigfoot-Privy---Can-You-Believe-It?

And I still chuckle every time I look at it.

Agreed - way out of hand. But a hobby is about fun. And I laughed when I saw this = fun. If silver was still up as high as it was a few years ago, I would have passed. Plus I could not resist the pun of saying I now have a proof of Bigfoot.

However, just like it would be unwise to go to an old fashioned mountain man for intricate details on the best way to run a city-based business or on how to invest in the stock market. I personally think it a bit lopsided to think the most qualified people to tell us what is, or is not, truly in the wilderness would be those who:
1. Don't have even a hundredth of the knowledge of the wilderness like the American Indians did (aka most of us) who each had their own name/knowledge of a large apelike animal that walked upright.
2. Make TV shows that appeal to masses b/c they know it will sell.

Google "new type of freshwater dolphin" and take the first link to a National Geographic article about, "The discovery of a wholly new species—the first such find in a century—is thus exciting news for biologists and conservation officials," in Brazil ... in 2014.

I am not willing to think that b/c I "just know" something is or is not true, it lumps me (and others with differing opinions) into a scatterbrained mindset.

...one of the main lessons I always emphasized with my students - no matter the topic.

The guy/gal who made the film should get a royalty, it is the sideways look from the short video.
Another guy in an ape costume, or Bigfoot. Great theme.

Actually the coin's depiction is only a similar pose of the sideways look from the short video called the Patterson-Gimlin film. Hence the "star" of the film is nicknamed "Patty." Why Patty? B/c the film shows female anatomical features when stabilized and zoomed in (also can be found online).

Until a few years ago - lots of time on my hands - I had not given any of it much thought, but while doing other things on youtube stumbled onto all sorts of documentaries about the film. So why not have fun and research both sides of the issue?

Surprisingly, it turns out there have been legit forensic studies, including legitimate DNA testings of hair samples that come back as unidentified ape, all sorts of yahoos making fake films for a laugh, people calling each other stupid on both sides, arguments about the patterns (and directions) of dermal ridges found within castings of alleged footprints, and the issue does not die. My own opinions cannot force the creature to/to not be real.

It took the RCM to give me "a proof."

Relating this back to the coin:
The coin is meant to make you think of "Patty" b/c of the pose. However, the coin's representation is devoid of female anatomy, and the arms of the coin's BF are too short since they would never reach, or be below, his knees if he was walking.

Just a technicality.

Maybe it's a depiction of Andre the Giant as the Bionic Bigfoot? A true legend worth at least six million dollars.
