National Collector's Mint scamsters are trying to cash in on 9/11 again

Former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer charged that the National Collector's Mint was committing fraud in marketing the coins.

The hucksters at the National Collector's Mint are out with a fresh scam that demeans the memory of 9/11. They are shameless and shameful.

Trading on the approach of the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attack, the company is peddling in TV ads and online a next-to-worthless ticky-tacky gewgaw meant to resemble an authorized commemorative coin. It is anything but.

The coin is said to be made from the same recovered silver and from gold - only there's less of it, just 14 mg.

The company reportedly raked in $11 million on coins that Spitzer estimated were worth less than 2 cents each.

Yup, I'm sure its made out of the recovered gold and silver I hope everybody here knows enough not to buy things that are advertised as collectible. Anything advertised as being collectible isnt.

I think that this is very wrong but the sad thing is many will fall for it.

Pathetic what some greedy people will do to make a buck, I often wonder how they can sleep at night.
