Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10038 Posts	Posted 02/20/2018 7:34 pm Mine is a $500 denomination gold NORFED "coin" made by a man named Bernard Von NotHaus http://goccf.com/t/247515 Why is it my avatar? Honestly not just b/c of this story. Its b/c I like his version of Miss Liberty moreso than 99% of what comes out of the mint's artists nowadays. When I saw a gold one in hand, I thought to be one of the most beautiful modern "coins" I had ever seen. Government to return Liberty Dollars: https://www.coinworld.com/news/prec...ollars-.html Its also worth the read to look up the original court proceedings. What helped the court make a counterfeiting charge stick is one of the lawyers displayed a picture of a Mercury dime, side by side with a picture of a NORFED Dollar. However, they had blown the pic of the dime up to make it, side by side, the same size as the 1 oz NORFED. The NORFED Dollars are the exact same size as an ASE - made on the same planchets. I don't know how many people on the jury had ever even handled one of each coin to see how they are nothing alike except to the non-familiar eye, the dime's design, I guess, slightly resembles the much larger "coin's" design.

Sagegirl Valued Member United States 207 Posts	Posted 02/20/2018 7:55 pm Mine is a Hardin (Montana) Dollar from 1970 Here is the reverse. I use it because it was the first silver dollar in my collection, and at 12 years old, having a dollar was pretty cool. Edited by Sagegirl 02/21/2018 3:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff
jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2208 Posts	Posted 02/20/2018 10:25 pm Mine is the puppet portraying North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il in the movie Team America (2004). I found the movie to be a brilliant, perceptive satire of the world's political situation at the time. This character was well drawn and entertaining.

CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12840 Posts	Posted 02/20/2018 11:26 pm Mine is a Danish 2 Kroner that was given to me about 5 years ago by someone special. My handle is "CelticKnot" and while this isn't a Celtic coin, the pattern around the center hole is kinda Celtic-ish, sorta, so that's good enough for me... for now. Report this Post to the Staff

chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 02/21/2018 10:54 am I consider myself a pretty good problem solver. My avatar is one of the 'greatest' problem solvers of all time. (I say tongue in cheek). Phineas J. Whoopie from the Tennessee Tuxedo cartoon in the 70s. "Phineas J. Whoopie, you're the greatest!"

Maybe I liked it b/c I also liked - still do - Get Smart and Don Adam's was Tennessee's voice. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
