Circus Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Ok then it might have been due the large number of southern transplants to the auto plant jobs in the metro Detroit area every other car seemed to have the window decal with some form of depiction of a Johnny reb solider and some form of the Forget Hell statementI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circus Posted May 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 I am not interested in these money makers for these small Islands. This one caught my eye having to do with veterans I thought it would make a great addition to that section of tokens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circus Posted May 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Like the other "Coins" that are minted with topical subject matter like in the stamps from some countries They have no use or real cash value on the islands, no matter what the adverts say. Though they have a “face” value of $5, but you might have a hard time getting five bucks from the Marshall Islands as they are reluctant to redeem them. They use U.S. dollars but beginning in 1986 they commissioned private mints to make commemorative coins that could be sold at a premium to raise money. All the current Marshall Islands coinage are commemorative's that are marketed in magazines and newspapers. They are produced by the Medallic Art Co., Roger Williams Mint and the Sunshine Mint.
