There's something refreshing about this article -- honesty. Right off,
it's not kidding around about helping the dollar coin to circulate. It
goes straight to the real motive: "a big money maker for the
government".

Sigh.

Yea, it is nice to see the truth of the matter come out. :-)
I'm sure that they will make a nice chunk of change, too. Many of us
collectors will "have to have one", any of us that are store owners will
have to have some to stock, TV HSN stuff will have to have 1000 every show
they run, at MS 69, which probably means they will have to buy 4000 to get
it. The list goes on of course.
