Might be a reprint!

The guy has a coin minted from The Denver Mint from 2007!

Scary stuff!

Now we might have an idea why they are pulling back troops for "civil unrest" back to the US..and why maybe McCain "tossed" the election??!?

Even tinfoil haters have to sit back and say hmmmmm

Woohoo...maybe I am nuts

In rumors and tinfoil hat junk like this..I am glad I am wrong

After all everything on the interwebz is true right...even the "counter point" stuff

Plus it looks like Hal Turner is a certified fruitcake!

Please don't take this as an offense toward the OP, but I now feel dumber having watched that video in its entirety.

I had never heard of this guy before so I looked him up after viewing that ridiculous trash.

He is an anti semitic, white supremacist nutcase. In 2006 he posted an assassination list of congressional members, whose views he disagreed with, on his now defunct website. He openly advocates violence to solve social and economic issues!

Please tell me that you didn't know anything about this guy, or posted this just to be funny. This is defintely not someone who is dealing with a full deck of cards and is certainly not someone that law abiding gun owners need to be associated with.

Yes & I too saw it & ask several that are more educated than I am. The above description of "fruitcake" & all that gos w/ it is correct.

The first red flag for me was, if this was so secretive, how did he get the amero.
I understand you can buy them off ebay.

Amero?

Hmm. Nice play on the word "euro".

It's quite possible that folks are thinking about real Ameros - Robert Pastor, etc.

However this ain't it. The coin in his video is indeed one of those novelty coins. It is real in that it is a punched out slug of metal in a round shape with thingies on it. But as for being a "real Amero" it's just plain ol' NOT.

Hal Turner isn't helping, and I wonder if he's just a disinfo guy.

Clicking on the "more info" link on the youtube page this video comes from reveals the following quote from the video's owner:

IT"S NOT THAT I DON"T BELIEVE THAT THE US IS WORKING TOWARDS THE NAU. NOR AM I SAYING THE AMERO, OR SOMETHING SIMILAR, IS NOT COMING.
BUT...
Hal Turner has been filling everyone with nonsense claims of the US government sending billions of Ameros to China. Here's the real proof.

From the Daniel Carr website:

I have received numerous inquiries as to my personal stand on the North American Union (NAU) issue.

My goal with these coins is not to endorse a Union of North America or a common "Amero" currency. I fully support the United States Constitution, and I would not welcome (in any form) a diminishment of its provisions. I expect that these coins will help make more people aware of the issue and the possible ramifications. I leave it up to others to decide if they are in favor of, or against a North American Union. And I encourage citizens to voice their approval or disapproval of government plans that impact them.

While I share some concern over the state of the economy as bambam cranks into office, I view this video as almost a comedy routine.

Years ago, while I was in the Navy and one of the lucky few Gunner's Mate not to be sent to 'Nam, I was part of a group of sailors touring some Greek ruins near Athens. As was typical of such tours then, and I find them no different in Mexico these days, we were herded onto a bus, driven past the sights, and then dropped off for the foot tour in the middle of a marketplace full of "heyjoes."

One of our more credulous sailors returned to the ship with a "genuine Roman coin" valued at 4 Drachmas, dating from 500 years or so before the birth of Christ, which had been found in the ruins, and was for sale at a fire sale price of $50.00 US, which was a lot of modern Drachmas.

This moderately crude lump of silver actually did bear a resemblance to an ancient Athenian coin (NOT ROMAN!) with one important improvement, it was stamped with the date "452 BC" right under the ruler's head on the obverse of the coin.

Pause for hysterical laughter.

Besides the obvious dating issue, the mix of history would have given even someone like me who had flunked his way through World History some pause. Roman coinage was based on the Denarius not the Drachma, Roman conquest came later than 452 BC, and the value of such a coin would be well above $50.00.

Obviously "Crank" (his nickname) was taken, but my point is that anyone can mint a coin, or have one minted as someone pointed out in a previous point, and all the dates and mint marks printed on it mean only that whoever minted it printed that stuff on there, they do not serve to prove authenticity.

By the way, Crank's coin was indeed real silver, one of the other sailors had some training as a metallurgist and knew how to use acid to test whether the coin was silver or not. It was not assayed for how fine it was, but it was silver. The speculation was that it was a real silver coin that had been melted into a lump and the stamped with a hammer on an anvil in someone's garage or backyard.

Edited to add:
I see that TAM has beat me to the punch with pictures of the real thing, or is that the fake thing, or . . . Now I'm confused too.

I'm always glad when I dig deeper into the rabbit hole and prove myself wrong

Even though when I dug deeper...I still found some way over the top goofiness like 90K Chinese troops in Mexico south of Tijuana..

WOW...I guess I need more tinfoil..or I need to upgrade to this

[lunchbox]
