<p>[QUOTE="gsalexan, post: 4124828, member: 24274"]It's not a law, more like CYA. The story I've heard is that about 10 years back a Secret Service lawyer told them they could no longer use *any* currency designs in their intaglio print program. Once the lawyer retired they returned to using currency, but to remove all doubt about the reprints they added COPY to the design. It does act as a successful deterrent to dealers cutting up the cards and slabbing them, but it ruins the eye appeal. All we can do is keep hammering away at the BEP with ongoing complaints and hope they eventually remove it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
