    I remember reading about this early in the year when they announced it.

    I never followed up to see if this particular pouch actually garners any more value today.

    It is possible that it's more desirable, because in some ways, it is a Mint error. But I do not know for certain.

    Oh my gawd, I need to return the set, because the pouch is not a "genuine" Indian product. Bleeping fake Indians at it again. What a crock.

  • Curious - they may become valuable after all... I remember hearing about this earlier, but I never did read the actual story on the mint's web site. Thanks for the link.

    I once heard that the native Americans when doing beadwork, leatherwork, or any other craft by hand would deliberately have flaws in their work.

    Is this true ? If so, WHY ?

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!
