What a shock. I feel like I've been kicked in the stomach.

I won't use them!

It was a mistake!

According to the U.S. Mint, an unknown number of new one-dollar George Washington coins (at least 50,000 of them, by one estimate) were erroneously struck without the motto "In God We Trust" and found their way into the batch of 300 million issued on February 15, 2007. A rumor (see above) began circulating soon afterward to the effect that the religious slogan, which has been a standard inscription on U.S. coins since 1938 and the national motto since 1956, was intentionally omitted from the entire run of one-dollar coins. The rumor is false, though it remains unclear whether it was inspired by the minting error or the fact that the newly designed coin, properly manufactured, bears the inscription "In God We Trust" on its outer edge instead of its face, per the Presidential $1 Coin Act of 2005:In order to revitalize the design of United States coinage and return circulating coinage to its position as not only a necessary means of exchange in commerce, but also as an object of aesthetic beauty in its own right, it is appropriate to move many of the mottos and emblems, the inscription of the year, and the so-called "mint marks" that currently appear on the 2 faces of each circulating coin to the edge of the coin, which would allow larger and more dramatic artwork on the coins reminiscent of the so-called "Golden Age of Coinage" in the United States...

It is on the side of the coin, I have seen one, it is really hard to see or read and the first place a coin wears down is on the edge, so it won't take much circulation for it to be completely gone....IT IS AN OUTRAGE!!

thank you krazynbama

David Mooney, an American patriot who had to close his Blue Star Deli restaurant in Farmers Branch, TX, last September because it was BOYCOTTED by Hispanics who resented Mooney for allowing PATRIOTS to hold meetings there, sent me an e-mail a couple of weeks ago telling me NOT to use the new US dollar coin. But I was unable to open up the attachment, so I couldn't find out WHY Mr. Mooney had warned me against this coin. But NOW, after seeing THIS post, I KNOW why! THANKS for the warning!
