Dollar Coins Missing 'In God We Trust': Financial News - Yahoo! Finance

lol

Quote:
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- An unknown number of new George Washington dollar coins were mistakenly struck without their edge inscriptions, including "In God We Trust," and made it past inspectors and into circulation, the U.S. Mint said Wednesday.
I like this part though:

Quote:
"The first one sold for $600 before everyone knew how common they actually were," he said. "They're going for around $40 to $60 on eBay now, and they'll probably settle in the $50 range."
It's true :) (almost down to 50)

I didn't even know they were minting them. Errors have happened on coins quite a bit throughout the years.

Why exactly does a screw up by our government turn a $1 coin into $50 worth of merchandise, but if I screw up everything becomes worthless?
-- rhetorical, of course. :-)
