the radio-
" 50 UNCIRCULATED 2025 PENNIES IN A
ROLL - $9.95 PLUS SHIPPING "

Wowee! What a deal  :o

Like baseball cards, hold them for 50 years and they might be worth something then.

Got the altered quarters and kennedy
halves now " . .  clad in beautiful 14
karat gold. . . Only a limited number
of these pieces will be offered. . "
( clad is salesspeak for plated, kinda
like "patina" is the antique dealers
term for "tarnish", and the cooking
shows saying " seasoning " instead
of " burned on crud" )
Now they're putting gold paint/ gold
leaf on paper money to sell at a
high price as well

I had always thought that stuff like
that was considered altering and
disfigjring US currency, and was
against the law
