The last time we went down this road we were talking about Obama’s fake presidential seal. One would have thought that lessons would have been learned . . . apparently not.
Now, boys ‘n girls we have the Obama presidential coin. We haven’t had our first presidential debate, he’s not elected, and we have (ta da) the Obama presidential coins . . . and in three finishes, gold, silver, and platinum!
According to Weasel Zippers
Democratic Party Contracts Company to Produce Gold, Silver and Platinum Obama Presidential Coins….
A company in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter is making commemorative coins for American presidential hopeful Barack Obama.
And if the Democratic candidate is elected to become the most powerful man in the world on November 4, it could open the floodgates for millions of pounds worth of business for the firm.
Windsor, Elizabeth & Windsor has already sold more than 300 limited edition commemorative silver coins to the Democratic Party to hand out to key members of the campaign to elect Obama.
WEW is producing limited edition runs of gold, silver and platinum Obama coins, and plans to produce new ones in other finishes for public consumption if the demand emerges.
The coins already sold to the Democrats will be presented to the senators, congressmen, governors and other politicians they are being given to within the next two weeks.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Did you notice the words”In God We Trust” on the outside of the box? Nice touch!
The success of the society as a whole is achieved by the provision of knowledge and data. Research projects the efforts of the students are also very necessary and valuable.
“This is a blog and not a news site.”
True… so take whatever is said by the blog poster with a ton of salt.
“What in the headline is false? The coins are being produced, that’s fact.”
I’m sorry, did I miss the headline that states;
“DNC MINTING OBAMA PRESIDENTIAL COINS!”
The coins are being product, that’s fact…
“Pray tell, what additional research was necessary?”
Perhaps the fact that the but the DNC is not minting them.
“But since you want additional info, you can go the Obama coin website and place your order. http://www.obamagoldcoins.com”
I know.. I already have all the information.
“The citations are properly notated in the post, without them the information would be plagiarized. BTW, apparently both Obama and Biden have had difficulty understanding what the concept of plagiarism is both having been accused of it in the past.”
Nothing to do with the discussion, but thanks for going on this tangent.
“If you don’t get the irony of fake Obama presidential coins being produced with the words “In God we Trust” there is no hope for you.”
As this was posted PRE-election night, the answer to, ‘what makes them fake’ would be ‘he’s not the president’. This I take as fact and agree with you..
Hmm.. again, In God We Trust is used by the U.S. government and quite appropriate, seeing as these were minted with the idea that Barack Obama WOULD be president.
Also, to answer this question;
“Also, please clarify the HRH reference in your first comment:”
HRH is His Royal Highness… The Prince of Wales.
Gold & Silver Obama Coins Go on Sale to the Public.
If Mr Obama gets in Mr Willard Wigan from Birmingham England will be going to the white house in 2009….
The Obama Coins which recently caused quite a stir due to the inscription “President of the United States” are now on sale to the public. The firm behind the coins has also responded to some of the controversy.
I notice you are making the Obama Presidential coin and I would like to offer you my personal condolences for this outrageously, repulsive idea. I also feel it necessary to warn you that this idea is a total waste of time, which will consequently ruin both you and your company financially and reputably. In a nut shell, I believe this coin belongs in the Smithsonian Institution right next to the Chicago paper that said ‘Dewey Defeats Truman’?
Obama will never become President of the United States because ‘we’ the true American ‘Christian’ people believe Obama to be both a Muslim and the antichrist. For those naïve Islamic sympathisers who disbelieve the election of Obama is a horror foretold, please see Revelation 13.

So, Obama didn’t commission them himself. But the Democratic Party sure has jumped all over it, and he doesn’t seem to be telling them no.
I don’t know how much more absurd this campaign could get. You keep thinking that the Obamamessiah and his followers can’t get any more presumptuous, narcissistic, and egotistical, but they always manage to surprise you by stepping it up a little more.
The Barack Obama Presidential coin is no longer a coin or an illusion, it is a piece of art; described by those that have seen it, as Slick, Sexy, Elegant and Daring!
These are not our words but the comments of world renowned movie stars and politicians ranging from Madonna and Barbra Streisand, Tony Blair, Prime Minister Gordon Brown and Barbra Berlusconi, the daughter of the Italian Prime Minister.
Most recently the Barack Obama coin was unveiled in Italy were it received an overwhelming reception; considered by most, as an iconic symbol for peace and change. This idea of peace and change gathered further momentum, as one was personally requested by a member of the Vatican who stated ‘the race is now in the hands of god’.
On a more sombre note, we have recently received a lot of negative comments and ignorant feedback with regards to why the Barack Obama coin has been created in Birmingham, England. The reason is simple; the English silversmiths are the best coin makers in the world with over 300 year’s experience. Creating coins for the Royal family and other Monarchs; we believe the President of the United States deserves to be treated with the same respect and dignity. Further more; we would also like to add that with each coin sold an America charity will benefit directly with 20% of the proceeds being donated.
To conclude, we believe the Barack Obama coin represents peace, diplomacy and prosperity for the future, which is what this world is crying out for?
Hi,
This coin has now been displayed in the Vatican, Rome.. it’s making the rounds maybe the Pope will bless one of these?

Jon:
Please tell me who you are and your connection to the Obama Coins? Also, please clarify the HRH reference in your first comment:
“Mr Willard Wigan MBE From HRH Price Of Wales.
As you know he has submitted his personal endorsement of Obama and would like to come over to the US and give his support on a talk show while at the same time appeal to the US market.”
Thank you.
Some $6,000,000 has been put on the table to http://www.wewlondon.com and http://www.obamagoldcoins.com to sell the master die and the rights to this Obama gold coin, if Mr Obama gets in the white house.
WEW confirms; we are minting a normal run of unlimited (Obama Gold Coins) and also a limited edition of (500 Solid-Silver Obama Coins) both hallmarked in Birmingham, England with 20% of all sales going to a US charity.
Wewlondon.com was the 1st to come out with this, not as a copycat, and wew is going to give back 20% to a US charity.
Mr Willard Wigan MBE From HRH Price Of Wales.
As you know he has submitted his personal endorsement of Obama and would like to come over to the US and give his support on a talk show while at the same time appeal to the US market. In the past the agents of Willard Wigan MBE have been in talks with Oprah Winfrey and as you already know Willard Wigan is the most famous micro sculpture artist in the world.
Willard Wigan continues to baffle scientists and doctors that are amazed by his work; and refer to him ‘as the eight wonder of the world’. He stated to us last night that he is going to produce a one of micro sculpture of Barack Obama inside the eye of a solid gold needle. His collection of work recently sold for $22 million dollars to a Mr David Lloyd (Davis Cup).
The story of Willard’s ability makes a great read and one that the UK and US media and audience would fall in love with. As a child in Birmingham, England Willard Wigan helped create complete housing including, tables and chairs for homeless ants. One day, know doubt; Hollywood or Disneyworld will pick up on this story and transform into a world-wide children’s novel.
Mike can you please get in touch with some of your network contacts and try to arrange a talk show slot for Willard Wigan. The idea is that he will fly over to America submit his personal support for Obama showing of the coin and also show of his own newest creation of Barack Obama in the eye of a solid gold needle.
Obviously, all this will be complimented by his unique childhood story and his unbelievable skill, as ‘the eight wonder of the world’.!
________________________________________________________________________
Over the last few days there has been a lot of media coverage concerning the Obama Gold Coin, which was first minted in Birmingham, England. We, (Winston, Elizabeth and Windsor) created the coin, as a piece of art and a symbol for hope and change.
Winston, Elizabeth and Windsor (WEW) were the first and original company to create and found the concept of a Barack Obama Presidential Coin. The concept was generated after hearing Barack Obama’s moving speech in Europe, which was like a breath of fresh air that came over the Atlantic and promised hope for the future.
The people of Europe felt they were able trust, empathise and communicate with Mr Obama, as a true leader of the people; for the people. As a result, (WEW) felt it necessary to honour Mr Obama due to his past and present lifetime achievements, as a man of great influence and a true leader for the people.
Some critics have stated; ‘the Democratic Party should denounce the coin’s production as inappropriate, as no coin should bear the image of a living person’. However, the people of England and mainland Europe feel that Mr Obama is exempt from this rule, as he represents a great nation, which finally deserves a great leader.
Mr Obama will never back down in the face of great difficulty or challenge but instead gives birth to an idea; the possibility that anything or anyone can rise up and achieve their ambitions – even the American dream?
WEW confirms; we are minting a normal run of unlimited (Obama Gold Coins) and also a limited edition of (500 Solid-Silver Obama Coins) both hallmarked in Birmingham, England with 20% of all sales going to a US charity.
WEW confirms, ‘yes’ it is true; a number of celebrities in the USA and UK have personally requested that we reserve a range of both Gold and Silver Obama Coins.
WEW confirms, ‘yes’ it is true; the first public display of the Obama Gold Coin was shown at the Birmingham Arts Fair in England and was hosted by UK Fine Arts. During the show England’s number one, world-renowned artist Mr Willard Wigan MBE also submitted his endorsement for Mr Obama and his campaign stating;
‘he would like to volunteer his personal services towards the Obama campaign’.
Mr Willard Wigan’s work is described, as ‘the eighth wonder of the world’ and was reportedly sold for $22 million dollars also submitted his personal endorsement.
Thank you for taking the time to read this statement and I hope you continue to give your support…
Patrick:
Your comment is fascinating. Let’s start with the obvious.
This is a blog and not a news site.
What in the headline is false? The coins are being produced, that’s fact.
Pray tell, what additional research was necessary? But since you want additional info, you can go the Obama coin website and place your order. http://www.obamagoldcoins.com
The citations are properly notated in the post, without them the information would be plagiarized. BTW, apparently both Obama and Biden have had difficulty understanding what the concept of plagiarism is both having been accused of it in the past.
If you don’t get the irony of fake Obama presidential coins being produced with the words “In God we Trust” there is no hope for you.
I like the way you refer the article to the originating website.. thus eliminating the fact that you actually did NO research on this at all.
Although, you did choose the completely false headline, “DNC MINTING OBAMA PRESIDENTIAL COINS”, good job on your personal/journalism skills.
“They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Did you notice the words”In God We Trust” on the outside of the box? Nice touch!”
I’m a little confused.. what exactly is this meant to explain? The U.S. prints In God We Trust on it’s money… is that a “Nice touch!”
