<p>[QUOTE="KBBPLL, post: 24693836, member: 104064"]Not coins and never shown, but the Columbo episode "Fade Into Murder" was on TV here Saturday night. The future murder victim wants her blackmail money in silver certificates as usual, and says "Silver Certificates. I would paper my bedroom with them if I could." Towards the end of the episode, we find out that she has willed a small fortune in "silver certificates" to an alternate suspect that are in a safety deposit box in Canada, along with half a million in IOUs from the actual murderer. It wasn't clear to me if these were silver certificates as in the old currency, or "certificates for silver" (but I have no idea what that means). Because silver certificates were such a big plot point, I thought of this thread. </p><p><br /></p><p>The villain was played by William Shatner (Captain Kirk), with a cameo appearance from Walter Koenig (Chekov) as Sgt Johnson.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
