1916 WWI Medal that says IN IRON TIMES... Struck in Iron, this medal was given out as thanks to all of the people who had sacrificed and contributed their gold and personal belongings to the German war effort

Maybe the US government will give us a similar token of disaffection for surrendering all our valuables to the cause of the morally and literally bankrupt government coffers?

Knowing our present US government, it might be more like compressed cow dung.

No it is not, it is a literal estimation of what the government and it's corporate crook sponsors have done to us.

You are absolutely right! The future doesn't look too promising. But I guess that's what happens when you go off a sound money system like gold and silver, and trade it for a fiat money system, trading our gold and silver for WORTHLESS paper!  >:(

We don't even have a fiat paper money system anymore.  It is more like a toilet paper system now.  At least TP has a dual use and for the most part is biodegradable.
