U.S. MINT STOPS PRODUCING DOLLAR BRICKS

Dick Johnson writes: "I seldom bring to the attention of
E-Sylum readers an item on CoinToday. I figure if you are
smart enough to find E-Sylum on your own you can do the
same with CoinToday. But you might wonder why the editors
of CT included such an item as this last Wednesday.

Call it humor if you wish (it might be funny in your cave). I
didn’t laugh (okay, I smiled). It is such a stretch. It is a rerun
this week from an item written by Dirk McQuickly in September
2003. [I have run that name through the Social Security Death
Index and found that he is still alive!]

Maybe I’m getting old, but I hold the U.S. Mint in pretty high
regard. Would they really stoop to making gold bricks? Or
dollar bricks?

This is blogging gone wild. Read at your own peril!
