    I'm not coining money.
    I'm altering existing government-issue coins, not creating new coins.

    It doesn't matter. When money is readily imitated (especially convincingly to a lay person) by private citizens, it undermines faith in the existing currency.

    You are using U.S. coin designs and inscriptions without authorization to do so. That is crossing the line. You can think whatever you want, it really is that simple.

    A paradox is a seemingly contradictory series of statements that proves to be true and well founded.

    Paper money is readily (and convincingly to a layperson) imitated by anyone with a good-quality computer, scanner, and printer.

    The designs are not copyrighted. It does not require "authorization" to legally re-engrave all the design and inscriptions of a coin, on that existing coin.

    I disagree. "Paradox" does not indicate a true and well-founded scenario. it is a logically unresolvable scenario.

    From dictionary.com "paradox" has two opposing definitions (seems fitting):

    1. a statement or proposition that seems self-contradictory or absurd but in reality expresses a possible truth.

    2. a self-contradictory and false proposition.

    It's been readily imitated by governments for long enough lol.

    How do you undermine faith in existing currency when these types of coins rarely if ever circulate, 60 percent plus of people don't even know they exist and most people couldn't even tell if state/atb quarters were real for years? If he starts over striking credit cards that could cause the currency to be undermined

    80 pages in and we'll have 8 pages of original material if we're lucky

    So is the rest all copied? The whole having to stamp copy is what cramps it. There must be a better idea.
