<p>[QUOTE=&quot;eric6794, post: 2388525, member: 76066&quot;]Hey all, I wanted to post this and ask everyone how the American Mint gets away with what they do. My friend gave me 6 (tokens) today in appreciation of all the help that I&#039;ve been doing for him and his fiance and they know I collect coins, I gladly took them and said thank you. His fiance&#039;s dad gave these to her a while back and they had a bad falling out she said so she didnt want them anymore. Ok my main question is how does the American mint or any other company have the right to put a denomination on a coin that is not legal tender? Obviously they are not but to someone who knows nothing about coins be it the person spending or receiving how would they know that they are not legal tender? I mean if I was broke and I took these tokens and spent them how would anyone know they are practically worthless (not that I would in fear of jail lol). second question is why are they continually allowed to deceive people? I would think that the real mint would want to shut these shyster&#039;s down. I&#039;m sure that it cuts into their business and we all know if you mess with Uncle Sams money you are bound to get shut down <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; I post thing continuously on my facebook page to deter people from buying from these companies but it seems they still continue to get business from people with no knowledge of coins so if others could pass the word that would be great. I attached a link to one of the tokens I am referencing cause I dont feel like taking a bunch of USB microscope pics of it.&nbsp; <a href="http://www.americanmint.com/us-currency-american-currencies/trials/saint-gaudens-lady-liberty-dollar-trial-9172720-02.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.americanmint.com/us-currency-american-currencies/trials/saint-gaudens-lady-liberty-dollar-trial-9172720-02.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.americanmint.com/us-currency-american-currencies/trials/saint-gaudens-lady-liberty-dollar-trial-9172720-02.html</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
