    hamman88 Spare some change, sir?

    On littleton's web site here is the description for a 2001-p Nickel:

    "This genuine 2001 Jefferson nickel was struck at the Philadelphia Mint. Struck the same year Microsoft released Windows XP, this coin makes a historic addition to your collection. Order today!"



    That is plain stupid.

    LOL. Never thought of playing the geek card to sell a coin.

    HA! Probably costs $15, too. Do they seriously sell those?

    Do you think they'll come out with a set that has a nickel for every year that a star wars movie was released?

    "This genuine 2001 Jefferson nickel was struck at the Philadelphia Mint. Struck the same year the World trade Center went KA BOOM!, this coin makes a historicly explosive addition to your collection. Order today!"

    I wouldn't be surprised if they sold out using an ad like that.

    To add the patriotic flair, they could claim it was "rescued" from the Vaults of some bank that had a branch at WTC when it collapsed. Or from some Shop or Boutique Safe.
