    Error medal, not error coin.

    The sculptor must say 10,000 Our Fathers and 10,000 Hail Marys!!!

    From a news article: "More than 6,000 medals were recalled after they went on sale Tuesday, reports the Telegraph, though not before four had been already sold. They will now become valuable collector's items."


    Umm...ya think?

    Yep.. with only four sold, plus what the employees steal and sell, it will be quite a collector's item. Cheers, RickO

    They could have tried to say that Lesus is latin for Jesus. Most people would probably buy that.image

    I thought it was correct: Lesus not into temptation...no?

  • This story made it onto Saturday Night Live last night. Pretty neat.

    There's been a few coin stories on SNL's Weekend Update in the past year. I think one of their writers must be a collector image
