    The one who lied about how gold it had? What else are they lying about?

    I think there are plenty of private mints out there that SHOULD mint reproductions, plated cheap garbage. Spread them everywhere with profit for a fundraiser to fight these (can't think of an adjective suiting that I can use on here) or help the people they're attacking, and it will at the same time force their coinage into question and devalue it.

    Why not?

    Just in case anyone wants to see what the coins supposedly look like, the following are all screen shots from the video.

    All of them wouldn't fit in one post but here's the last two copper coins.

    "Moreover they pay wages of their soldiers in gold - sometimes"

    I recently read they pay their "soldiers" in US dollars which is a big reason to mint their own currency.

    That would be a pretty good idea to hurt their currency. I'm sure the U.S. mint would be able to make some pretty convincing counterfeits. Heck, even private outfits like the Franklin Mint could be contracted to make some gold plated coins.

    I'd like to buy one because ISIS will probably just be a blink of an eye in history.


    Excellent idea to counterfeit their garbage coinage.

    Please don't talk of my husband that way, he has only cut off three heads and then he got blown up by American drone. He was good man, he did his job and now he goes to heaven and gets 30 tax free virgins. j/k laughhard.gif Niqab.jpg

    Publicity stunt for some "private mint" which will sell these items to collectors.

    yeah, and it should be the countries most at risk from those nut jobs - UAE, Jordan, Qatar, et al should take the lead and heavy lifting, Meanwhile every mission we fly cost at least $1,000,000.00.

    Name one religion practiced today that it's members, here in the US, kill others because they refuse to believe in it.

    There have been several political and religious figures here in the U.S. who have come pretty close to saying exactly that is what they believe should happen.

    Of course it is practically impossible to discuss those IS "coins" without getting into politics and religion somehow. But please take the pol/rel debate elsewhere. Thank you.
