    That is the most disgusting commercial I have yet seen. "On the front, the frosted Twin Towers stand out against a mirror-like background, much as they did in the gleaming sunlight of that fateful morning". I feel like saying to the TV, F-U for making a cheap buck on the memories of that day. Maybe someone can take it to the target range and blow a hole into the hunk of metal. "The frosted Twin Towers have a big goddamed hole in them, much as they did in the gleaming sunlight of that fateful day."

    So you're saying you don't want to buy mine?

    Why would I want to do that. I can get twice that amount (74 cents) for my 20 dollars in the stock market.

    Some people are making a killing selling Zimbabwe Dollars on ebay. Well maybe not a killing but selling them for a lot more than they're worth.

    You could be a Zimbabwe trillionare for under $100 USD.

    I always like how they use ".999 silver leaf" or "pure gold clad" for these things

    yeah about as "authentic" as the "official Liberian currency."

    Note that it is uncirculating Liberian legal tender.

    That stupid commercial still gets me. The Frosted Twin Towers .... yum, yum, makes me want to pour milk all over them and gobble them up!

    I was livid when I saw this same company selling their coins on TV here, claiming the silver was from the WTC. They claimed victims families were to receive part of the proceeds. I wonder if the families ever saw a cent from them.

    They're grrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat!

    But yeah, I've seen this before on TV. Pathetic. Sad that people go for this crap.

    There's another one where they are selling Morgan Silver Dollars (hey, at least it's actual US currency). They show a graph of how the price of silver has "skyrocketed" to $20 an ounce. Of course they don't reveal that the graph ends at March 08 when silver was at its peak. No need to tell people it has since dropped to less than $11 an ounce.
