Fake Ron Paul Currency seized

This is from the Washington Post Blog:

A Paul campaign spokeswoman, Kerri Price, said yesterday that while Paul also supports abolishing the Federal Reserve, the campaign "does not have any affiliation with Liberty Dollars at all." von NotHaus confirmed this, saying that he knows Paul because they "move in the same circles" but that he had expressly not talked with Paul about his plans for the special coins so as not to violate federal election rules.

First they ignore you...


:D Exactly! And we passed the "ridicule you" stage as well...
Ron Paul for president 2008! :)

Oh - and Ron Paul has nothing to do with the RP-Dollar:

With Lyndon Larouche as his running mate! It could happen! :rolleyes:

Yes, you just posted that same quote three posts ago. Posting it again in the same thread accomplishes nothing other than wasting bandwidth and disk space.

It still doesn't detract from what I said: if the Paul campaign wants to be taken seriously, he really needs to distance himself from the crackpots. Instead, he seems to be depending on them for his base of support.

It seems that way right up till the point where you consider how the 5 or 10 cent prostitutes must look like. I'll stick to coins and bills, that you very much.
Once at work I was offered the services of 2 prostitutes... for $3 total.

I guess that would make them $1.50 hookers, and it was overpriced believe me!

I apologize for not realizing that I already posted the WP-Blog-Article.
And he does distance himself from "crackpots", Truthers, Neo-Nazis
Coin-Makers etc...

So which groups are you referring to?

OMG, I've just realised, first we ignored Dylan Avery, then we ridiculed him...

Being ignored and then ridiculed is no indicator of success. I am reminded of a quote abort wearing eh mantle of Galileo.

Ehm, no. The CT-Subforum always ridiculed Dylan. There's a difference. :p

Not really, no.


How so? He clearly says that he doesn't believe in Inside Jobs,
his Campaign and the RP-Dollar guy both stated that they don't
have anything in common. And Ron's stance on racism is contrary
to the Stormfronties....

What's left?

Yes, but prior to the LC thread, we ignored him.


No, the Forum didn't know who he is prior to the thread. There is a difference
as well. But to get back on topic - what's the difference between the Liberty
Dollar and the Disney Dollar which indeed is an accepted currency in Disney
resorts... ?

If you leave Disney world and you have extra Disney Dollars, what do you get back?

Is the Disney dollar designed to look like US Currency, or does it have Mickey Mouse's face on it?

The Disney dolors are not at attempt a counterfeiting and fraud. Using $15 of silver in order to produce a "coin" claimed to be worth $20 in order to rip off business owners, and then offering to buy it back at $15 is out and out fraud.
 
To be fair, the Liberty Dolor had a Micky Mouse candidate on it ;)

I'm laughing so hard that I hate to contradict you. The Ron Paul money was a novelty and a publicity gimmick, but most of the coins had a picture of a woman wearing a crown, similar to the Statue of Liberty, and very much like the old silver dollar coins and the U.S. Mint collectibles.

You can see it here--you can run, but you can't hide from the Wayback Machine!

It is no fraud. You can get the Ron Paul Dollars for
lousy $1,175.00 a piece:

I really should sell my RP-Dollars as well - seems to be
a good time to do so...

You should sell them. The inherent value is about $785; the rest is numismatic and collector's value. That's not likely to ever be higher. Note the the face value of this coin is $1000, more than it's inherent value.

After the election is over and all this is a footnote the numismatic and collector's value will drop precipitously so your Ron Paul dollars will be worth less than their face value. I don't know if you were one of those lucky enough to get the coins for less than their face value, but I urge you not to try and spend them as tender.
