We need to fix this mess and do it in the simplest and least expensive possible manner.&nbsp; Putting people in jail for melting nickels that shouldn&#039;t even exist is not the right way to go.&nbsp; A 5c coin that should exist is the way to go and then you don&#039;t need to call the cops or put people in jail for melting them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
