Apparently already being minted to be released this fall. "It's composed of non-precious metals, but will have a "gold-like finish," the spokesperson said. No idea on size, but the reverse looks like a half dollar. I wonder if it's $1 golden dollar size or half dollar size.
Cool.... The reverse is a dead rip-off of the JFK half. Not that it is a bad thing. I always thought the JFK reverse was quite an attractive design.
Another cheap piece of crap from the mint. It is fake and not good. I can promise one of these will not end up on my collection.
It's a disgrace to our numismatic tradition and should've been laughed out of the room the moment it was suggested.
