Issuer of Collectible Liberty Dollars Seeks Acquittal, New Trial

[jeff of pa]

The convicted counterfeiter behind the so-called Liberty Dollars is asking a court in North Carolina to grant him a new trial, arguing that a jury erred in 2011 when it sided with federal prosecutors who alleged that the Liberty Dollars were put into circulation in an attempt to be mistaken for U.S. currency.
Bernard von NotHaus has been awaiting sentencing on the counterfeiting and fraud charges since, and is building his argument for an acquittal or a new trial with a memorandum filed this week with the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina.

Very interesting, never heard of this. Reminds me of a lot of the "Franklin mint" stuff. This is why folks always need to stay skeptical so they don't get scammed.
