Frankly, I’m starting to think these new offerings from the mint are getting out of control.

I prefer Rice Krispies
I think the three coin set featuring a Snap gold $5, Crackle silver $1, and Pop clad 50¢ comes out in 2020

Well, when the news below gets out ceral sales will fall dramatically,,,,,
"With the recipe, Kellogg, sought not only to reduce the effects of indigestion amongst the patients in his charge, who had to adhere to a strict vegetarian diet, but to also help reduce the sexual urges of his patients,"

Beats me. I’m not sure what it means.
Alright, special thanks to Charles for joining me in this goofy prank. He wrote the copy for the article, I created the designs. Happy Easter/April Fools, everyone!

actually, all April 1st kidding aside, that is NOT the worst idea. I mean, not so much "breakfast cereals". But, kids might actually get enthused about coins if beloved animated corporate logos were on them. And, how about a limited issue of a one type mixed in to turn it into a treasure hunt, of sorts.
Or, let's just go completely digital and get it over with....

Too flaky for me.
(Although they might go well with my state quarter spoons.)
Also, aren't they likely to develop milk spots?

It's my birthday today. I know All about April fool's day jokes. Growing up, I was told I was one. Nice try. But......then again, I wouldn't put it past them. Anything's possible with those FOOLS!
They're GREAT. The Mint has enough bad ideas, please don't give them any more.
I thought this was going to be like the Cheerios Dollar.
I'll buy more mint products when they issue the Indy 500 Winners series and not a moment before

Looks better than many things from the Mint lately. LOL!
Thought it was a "Make America Greeeeeaaaat Again" design.
I cannot wait for the 5oz Captain Crunch puck.
I'll buy two.
@Hydrant....Happy Birthday.....
Nah... never happen, would send to many to safe spaces just looking at pocket change....

As for the 'cereal coin' concept... wow.. bottom of the barrel....Though I am sure they would garner a following.... maybe I can get a firearm series....Yeah... that's the ticket....I would be a subscriber to that one...
