i also like how they call the inclusion of the dates of the anniversary the coin commemorates a 'feature'.

Does that make it somehow more collectable? Weren't there some that were 'legal tender in N. Marina Island" or something like that?

Tacky, yes. Tasteless, never.

Paul Y. can't think of a better, shorter handle
