<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1589930, member: 12789&quot;]The likelihood of Carr&#039;s coins actually being used in commerce are very slim.&nbsp; They were made for a very limited collector base and aren&#039;t likely to be used in circulation unless you are a complete imbecile - spending a coin for a pittance that you paid far more for.&nbsp; But the way the Feds looked at the NORFED material was that it was actually being used/forced in commerce.&nbsp; At least early on in the case against Von Nothaus was that coercion was used to force people to accept them.&nbsp; However in reality the Feds wanted to nip this in the bud and make Von Nothaus a sacrificial scapegoat in order to prevent others from doing the same thing and it becoming a big thing - much more so than even Ron Paul would have imagined.&nbsp; The reason they haven&#039;t gone after Berkshares or BayBucks is that they are very limited in scope with no aspirations of growing beyond a very limited area.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The kicker for the Feds is that by going after NORFED they brought much more attention to the conspiracy theorists.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
