  I don't consider myself a prude but I never cared for these.

  Nice fun novelty from San Fran in 1877.

  It was mildly amusing the first time I saw one, now kind of boring.

  I'd say that's the cream of the potty dollars.

  I never saw one with that motto. The whole coin is very well done.

  Is that a candle? Could be glaucoma medicine given the revised motto!

  Could these be easily counterfeited?
  
  I mean, after all the carving and what not, how would you ever have any solid diagnostics on authenticity?
  
  Now that I think about it, the dentils on that particular coin look wrong. Especially in the 8:00 o'clock position.

  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.

  That is one of the best potty dollars I have ever seen. The attention to detail is fantastic. I have never seen one with a candle added. I may have seen one with the motto altered.
  
  These are not for everybody, but IMHO this is a legitimate form of American folk art.

  Nicely done, and I agree that it is a great example of folk art.

  I'm pretty sure that the host coin is genuine. Would love to know more about the artist who carved it.

  That is definitely one of the better ones that I've seen. There are lots of them out there that are poor carvings and quite crude. The really good ones are not easy to find. I looked at many of these until finding this one that I liked enough to purchase:
