In God We Trust!

[katcarasella]

I received an e-mail today telling me about the removal of "In God We Trust"
from the "new" $1.00 coin. After I read it I immediately got online to research this. Here are the facts:

I received the same e-mail and our daughter who is a bank teller cleared that one up for us. She says people who have received the e-mail come into the bank all the time asking about the $1.00 coin, so they straighten them out, nicely, of course.

I had an e-mail about this too and was glad to hear that "In God We Trust" is still on the coin, just on the side. What a funny place to put it!

Well, I was completely in the dark over this one. I hadn't heard a thing about it until now.

I don't think a dollar coin will be used much anyway. We used to ahve silver dollars, there are (or were?) 50 cent coins, that Susan B. Anthony coin - maybe it was a $2.00 coin?

I'm not comfortable with anything bigger than a quarter because I'm afraid I'll give $1.00 coin instead of a quarter. I like my dollars in paper, what can I tell you?

"In God We Trust" belongs on my money. I'm glad you looked that up Kathy.

I'm with you, Judy-prefer paper myself. Besides, who wants to carry around all that extra weight?!!!

You're a wise woman Judy!
