I have had this around 18 years now but can find nothing out about it. It was supposed to be silver and it does weigh 31.4 g.

If anyone has seen it or knows anything about it I would be grateful for information..

Thanks

I really like this coin. B/c I had a shocking experience concerning Mr. Clinton that will stay with me to my grave.

When I was watching him on TV, while he was talking to a group of college students (only time in my life I watched MTV), I knew just how corrupt the government had become. Because he said to the audience that we need to get rid of the Bill of Rights b/c it is an outdated document that has little bearing on today (not his exact words - but this was the exact context).

Traitorous - period.

At that moment he should have been taken out of office for denying the oath he took to defend the Constitution. If the Senate had not been puppets at the time, the impeachment would have been passed in both houses and justice served (however, it was not over this issue mentioned). The media also does not like to report the one of the last things he did while sitting in the office of president was to pardon himself for lying about Lewinsky.

Our forefathers would cry - and so should we (who are living in the era of Clinton II).

I don't like slander as this also is not right. But I do not see your coin as slander, since it makes no reference to his character -- so I like it and would like to find one.

Keep this on the original intent of the post (identification). If this starts leaning political, it goes away.

From another forum "Back in the early 90's I was working in Indianapolis and had a chance to buy something for $10. It was supposed to be Silver. Well I have had it all these years and pulled it out this afternoon and do a little searching about it. I have come up blank. What I remember was, the gentlemen that sold it to me said that he had the die and did some 'regular' strikes to complete an order. He then modified it to the 'just say no' obverse and minted a few. I can not remember how many he said but it wasn't many. I got it because it was silver and I did not like Clinton.

I now have a scale and wanted to see what it weighed thinking it might be plated etc, but it did weigh 31.4 grams."

Nobody was any help there, either. If this story is true & "just a few", it's a definat keep.

No idea what the 'R' means? Has anyone at least seen one of these before?

Well I guess no one has seen it or one like it before. Maybe it has some value more than the silver in it? I was sure the 'R' would be recognized by someone..

Thanks
