I guess Bob Marshall mug will appear on this new currency? Actually Bob is right, those Federal Reserve notes aren't worth much so I'd urge Bob and all his friends to take me up on this special offer. Send me $1000 in US currency and I'll send back $500 worth(at current exchange rate) of gold or silver. This is a limited time offer. Act now.
