Well, if Americans cannot differentiate between 3D originals and "almost 2D" reproductions, the Nordic Gold cent coins from Cyprus should be equally banned in the US. After all, the obverse features the reproduction of a copy of an ancient ship. tongue.gif

Even if people think it looks old the date "2008" is a bit of a giveaway.
