One of a group of the misstruck new presidential dollar coins, left, that has the "In God We Trust" lettering stamped on the edge, but showing no presidential face, is displayed next to a new presidential dollar showing President George Washington at the Professional Coin Grading Service offices in Santa Ana, Calif., Tuesday, March 13, 2007.

The Liberal attack continues. Now they deface George Washington.

They've finally found a way to promote these dollar coins.

I guess you've never used a vending machine at the Post Office.

I found a quarter that was the size of a half dollar. It was much thinner than a quarter and the extra diameter was just blank. It also has no ribs on the edges.

A dealer offered me $100 for it and said they were fairly common? I still have it.

I once got this defective stamp with an upside down airplane. Figured it would be rejected as postage, so threw it away. It was annoying to be out that 24 cents.

I'd like to get a job at the US Mint. Those guys make a LOT of money. Heck, it would be worth it just for the employee discount.

I thought the Bill Clinton Dollar had "heads" on both sides.

It does have "In God We Trust" on the edge. What's missing is the image of George Washington on the front and the Statue of Liberty on the back. Instead, the Smiths' coin is just smooth, shiny metal.

I think God's a bit miffed that He's been relegated to the edge.
