As they're selling them for $30, I don't think the cost matters.Scarim Coral said:
It's certainly awesome.
Because the dinosaurs know if you don't appreciate them.Evil Smurf said:

Stay safe. Respect our upright-walking-lizard future-overlords.
I find it funny how he posts musical acts and you post political "news" people. C'mon the USA has had plenty of bad musical act originate here.SnakeoilSage said:
10 times the population, 15,6 tril. American, 500 mil. Canadian. Americans have ways more than 10 times the Canadian debt right now.s69-5 said:You already have that massive debt that far outweighs ours.Witty Name Here said:
So... it's a limited edition, novelty quarter that's technically worth 25 cents, but which nobody is ever going to spend because it costs much more than that to get your hands on it.
I guess that technically makes it okay for the mint to make them, but I can't think of a reason they couldn't make enough for them to be real currency... after all, a money that isn't used isn't a medium of exchange, and they already have the molds and the factory lines set up. At best, this will be a trade good, because I sure wouldn't spend two of these babies on a gumball.

I was about to rage in a patriotic manner until I clicked on the link in the article. Or at least be mildly terse, write an offended, overly long post, and delete it after half an hour of refining my arguments.Andy Chalk said:
Now I have to thank you... I always enjoy nut jobs talking about their obsessions. This guy is by far the nuttiest I've seen all year. He makes the Ancient Astronaut theorists look positively conservative in their views.
Anyway, back to him talking about species operating at different frequencies, and the Queen being possessed by a bipedal lizard in the infra-red range.
Political opinion is a central facet of American culture these days. I wanted to provide tangible examples of poison on society, not just people I hate because of petty jealousy. Snark like that just comes across as hypocritical.Eric the Orange said:
Just look up "worst musical acts" online; a list of 100 might include Nickleback, 5 British bands, and a cesspool of American-made garbage.
Is this ridiculous or fantastic? I'm undecided, but think of the awesome potential if humans uncover said coins in a few hundred years.
i know, how sad isit they have to steal news FROM THEMSELVES now? did Kotaku go down?Zipa said:
The Royal Tyrell Museum in my home province of Alberta is one of the most famous dinosaur museums (located in the same valley where many of their own fossils come from in the first place as well) in the world, I'm assuming, could be a factor?dyre said:

Those are called "toonies", by the way.
..Yeah, I know. Not to original from "loonies", but what will you do, eh?
My inner child suddenly wants to take a trip north . . . American quarters have NOTHING on this.
