From the New England Mint

Regardless of your political bent, you just have to wonder about something here...

And yes, I know it's not limited to this particular coin, but...

Ten bucks for a $1 coin? A 900% markup just for some paint?

Well it's gold plated too! Plus you get a bonus coin!

How much is the S+H though? $19.95?

I'll bet they'll sell about 300,000.

Act now and you will get a low numbered coin.

Aren't they all numbered "1"?

Just to point out the obvious, the "New England Mint" is not a branch of the U.S. Mint and overprinting something on a different presidential dollar does not make it an official mint issue.

GW and I saw this advertised on TV the other day. She turned to me and said "Who buys this crap? Do they really think it will be valuable one day?" My answers were "I don't know, and, sad to say, yes, some people do." Probably the same folks who answer those Nigerian e-mails.

Olivia would love this. She would like to chew on the ears.

Those huge teeth are hilarous.

Some around these parts probably think the political button should be on the other end ...

I wonder how many people are going to get suckered into buying these coins.

I just bought 10,000 of them... which I can do because I have that kind of money. Then in 50 years, when gold prices are $100,000/ounce, I'll sell them all and make at least $10 billion.

Top that, Obscenely Rich Bastard!

The Obama suit, made by the noted Bosnian clothing manufacturer, Borac (not Borat), and already a big seller, not just in Bosnia but in Croatia and Slovenia as well.

I couldn't find a picture of the suit anywhere.

With over $1 Trillion dollars in new spending being proposed now, I will wait until the new "O" Dollar is selling for 50 cents!

The image is cut off, but that looks like an Obama 50 cent piece in the bottom right corner.
