“In God We Trust” Missing From Some New Dollar Coins!

Posted by Siamang on: 03.07.2007 /

Washington Coin

Followers of the culture wars will be aware of the issue of “In God We Trust” on American currency. Now comes the report that perhaps 50,000 of the new Washington Dollar coins were mistakenly put into circulation without the phrase “In God We Trust”, which is supposed to be printed on the edge of the coin. “Godless” dollars are now found on Ebay going for about 50 bucks!

This is ironic in itself: How to make $1 worth $50? Take God off of em!

No word on any reaction yet from the guy from that 30 Days episode who couldn’t get his brain around how “In No God We Trust” would be unfair also.

    [...] Siamang brings to my attention that many of the 300,000,000 new George Washington dollar coins that were minted have a mistake. [...]

    Why don’t we mint some coins with the truth on them: “In military power we trust”?

    In pre-war intelligence we trusted too much.

    Good ones, Benjamin & Siamang! How about “in the Almighty Dollar we trust.”
    Or “God Bless America (and nobody else!)”

    When I first heard about this I wondered if there could possibly being an atheist working in the mint?

    Atheist coin, it’s as stupid as the people that wants it in circulation. Not believing in the one “True GOD“. Idea, Create your own country and take your coin with you and let the believers watch the reenactment of Saluda and Gomorra.

    That’s not very friendly, Charles. Calling people stupid.

    Most Christians here and atheists have better manners than that. Care to try again?

    The new coin does have “In God We Trust” on the edge of it. God will bless any nation. God does get angry you know and there is such a thing as wrath. If athiests have all the answers to life then why don’t they post them so we all can find out the truth?
