A number of Muslim neighborhoods in the US have expressed intention to use these medallions for dollar-denominated barter trading in their communities, led most actively by Emir Ismail Bryant in the Carolinas, Emir Najib Abdul-Haqq in Georgia and Emir Khalil Abdullahi in Pennsylvania.
Wonder how the authorities and the people will react to this...
Since it states on it "not legal tender" and makes no claim to be a US dollar, I doubt there is any problem with it. It is just another of many "medallions" in certified precious metals.

Bartering and issuing a currency is not the same thing. I would have thought you'd know that though.
Hence it was a question, but really along the lines of the OP itself. If the story is true, they're using dollar-denominated gold coins, and I used dollar-denominated photography equipment.
Have you never done that? I might as well bet, no republican has... ever.

You really are quite smug in your own little world of absolutes eh ?
