    Leave it to North Korea to mint a coin showing a (North Korean) soul-soothing image of "an enemy" getting a bayonet to the throat...

    The title of the coin is "Blood will Have Blood." Oh.
    Yeah, this really convinces me that the DPRK is a totally normal country. One with whom you can make deals that they will completely honor. Really.

    It’s certainly not an appropriate design for a coin struck in the 21st century. It doesn’t look any good either and the title reminds me of what people said at times of the American Revolutionary War.

    I must have been sleeping in class that day. What did people say at times of the Revolutionary War?

    OK bad example. Let me rephrase “it sounds like what people may have said 200 years ago”. Better?

    PCGS should have refused to grade it.

    I'm just waitin' for a slab with a coin from some dictator gifted to Kim Kardashian.
    I'd be ALL OVER that...

    Did Rodman sell it? Perhaps to get another piercing?

    Seems like the grading companies will slab and grade most anything with any label your willing to pay for.

    No they shouldn't, their job is to grade numismatic items not to be the moral police. Countless world coins, all ancients, all mid eveil, colonial coins etc would all have to be refused too. Even bullion would have to be refused as people would object to the conditions in which most of it is mined.

    This statement has just as much insinuation as the one posted previously. It isn't our judgement that matters. By the way it is too easy to fuel a conversation on the innerweb.
