AS far as the "Obama Change".... I also that it was defacing legal tender. If I ever got my hands on a set, I would check the Washington dollars for the missing edge lettering. If not, I have 2 bucks and some change! Thanks Obama....Mission Accomplished!!

I saw these on TV the other night. I don't know much about coins, but I thought they were ugly and had that dollar store quality. I would'nt buy that crap.

Is this the "change" that he was gassing about during his campaign?  Hopefully the stimulus check is not payable in this junk! |

but they include a certificate of authenticity.... It never occurs to people that the easiest part of the deal to fake would be the cetificate of authenticity. I have an autograph of LBJ with a COA. It's on state of Ohio letterhead, signed by the secy of state. Now THAT's a COA. |

I'll stick with my "politically incorrect" obama 50 cent note that a friend of mine made and printed off his computer! Probably will be worth more 10 years from now! ;)

Whenever I get an offer with a "postage paid" envelope, I just put some used toilet paper in it and mail it back.
