Without more information, all I can say is someone took some coins and painted them.

Do you mean spray painted coins or fancy painted halves, silver dollars or ASE's? People spray or otherwise mark halves to try and track their dumps. The other painted coins are just an attempt to make the coin bring a higher price.

Looks like someone wants to up their post count... several one word replies

Some folks say that painting coins is a crime;
If they catch you markin' they are bound to drop a dime,
Insufferable informer crazy fools,
waiting with their fingers crossed for you break the rules.

I wanna know, know, right now,
Is their one of you on the board,
are you gunna nine one one?
and spoil all of my fun?

Got to find a reason
A reason things went wrong.
Got to find a reason why my box is all skunks.

I've still got some pennies
I'll go buy some dimes.
I will fill a Whitman like a motherf*king riot.
