A few months ago I received a email stating not to spend these dollar coins because "In God We Trust" was no longer on the coin. I made note of it and was not going to even touch one of these coins. Today we drove 1/2 way to my sisters place, which ends up being around Dayton, to eat out for her and my mother's birthdays. They were both born on April 22 different years though. Anyways after drinking 3-4 glasses of Pepsi at the restaurant I ended up having to stop at the rest area. Of course I had to get a drink after going to the bathroom for the rest of the ride home. :) All I had was a $10 bill but that was no problem they had a change machine right there. Wouldn't you know I put the $10 bill in and out came 10 dollar coins 8 of which were the new coins. There was 2 other older men there and I showed them the coins and complained about the fact that the phrase "In God We Trust" was no longer on these coins. They agreed that it was a shame. So down the road we went with me just ranting and raving about the fact of the missing phrase. Chandra decided that she should take the coins into the bank and give them back and tell them she was not going to spend any money that did not have "In God We Trust" on it. Good now we have a plan how to handle this. Down the road we went me feeling pretty smug that Chandra was going to take care of this, when I noticed there was something written on the edge of these coins.
Guess what!!
There it is on the edge "In God We Trust"
I don't really care for where it is located but at least it is still on the coin.
