I think this British Pathe video of the Royal Mint's coining process (circa 1948) is probably better than that 1940 U.S. Mint video. Silent...
Maybe the Trump Dollar will show Harleys on the White House lawn. ...along with some derelict muscle cars up on cinder blocks with their crankcase...
Presidential DOGS?! Wow. I think that's actually going to happen someday. Seriously. I don't know about where you're from, but where I...
