[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 684807, member: 15929"]Without trying too be to abrupt, your ignorance is showing through. Obviously the dollar coin is a US Mint product but the addition of the aluminum casing which is what makes it an "Oath Dollar" is not! Insisting that the oath dollars are a Product of the US Mint is simply a blatant falsehood regardless of what ANACS states on their slab. Literally ANYBODY can have these manufactured: [IMG]http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u8/lcl1119/Misc/DSC05081W.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u8/lcl1119/Misc/DSC05079W.jpg[/IMG] How about this one which is also available at the Denver and Philadelphia Mints: [IMG]http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u8/lcl1119/Misc/PennyinaBottle.jpg[/IMG] Collectible? Perhaps since the dates on the coins are different. A product of the US Mint? Only the cent but not the bottle. Collect what you want but stop insisting that the so called "Oath Dollars" are a product of he US Mint since they are not. They are a product of ARAMARK which services the "Quick Shop" at the US Mint since the US Mint officially closed there stores around 1994 and contracted the service out to a third party vendor which can sell pretty much anything they want including shredded paper money, coffee cups, star notes and Mint Sets (which BTW, any coin dealer can sell). Folks that have spent $80 will get a very rude awakening to this farce when they try to sell these treasures to a coin dealer. Wanna have some fun? You up for a challenge? Crack out your "Oath Dollar" and submit it to PCGS.[/QUOTE]
