l love this part...

"My father, Harry Edmond Lawrence, was Deputy Superintendent of the Denver Mint when the aluminum cent was struck. When he died in 1980, that coin and others he received over the years were in a plastic sandwich bag."

uh, yeah...ok. :clap:

I have to wonder why the Secret Service has not swooped in to confiscate these counterfeits. Has there been a ruling allowing their sale? I found no news to that end.
