    Let’s all get on board with using a $1 coin. If I recall the Sacajawea coin was an awesome coin that most vending machine accepted at that time. Why not bring that back. Edit - From the looks of it he is using the photo from when he was arrested in GA. I may be wrong, but that’s what it looks like. Edit 2: Not sure why I am being downvoted. It would piss this Ahole off to no end if we all started using the old $1 coin instead of his.

    I like how it says liberty was born in 1776 and died in 2026

    If someone tries to pay me with this, I simply will not accept it.

  • begins? i’ve seen these in “antique” stores and estate sales from people whose grands got bilked, trying to get a fraction of what they paid or maybe face value. i have ideas for recasting, but i ain’t a sculptor. first one i distinctly recall seeing was june this year (they were asking 11/coin for the set or 75 cents each for a single. it’d been a week and no takers. not surprising for a small liberal west coast beach community. i told them they should list the metal content on a sign and drop the price to 60 cents a coin, they’d be gone in a day (i have a small amount of experience in secondhand stores)) i don’t know if vending machines will take them. i’d be surprised if they do.
