“There's nothing newly minted about the West Point coin facility — it’s been churning out popular American collectibles for 75 years.”

 

Bologna!

 

It was opened in 1938 as a silver repository, nothing else.

 

Did anyone at the NY Daily News attend Journalism school?

I don't think I've ever read a news story about something I was familiar with that didn't have some inaccuracies.

 

I love this line too:

 

The coins emerged with the familiar American bald eagle emblem indelibly etched upon them.

 

I could handle struck or stamped, but certainly not etched.

I wish my bed room walls were filled from wall to wall with gold bars, but not today, it was a great story that the news put out.
