I still cringe when they use BCE instead of Before Christ. It’s been Before Christ for at least 1700 years. F the political correctness! At least here on FR.

"Closer examination revealed that the core of the coin is actually made of bronze. The coin was only silver-plated, creating the illusion of pure silver. It could be an early example of a counterfeit coin.

Or maybe they had their own version of the Federal Reserve?
