> Your "fact" was disproven.

No, it wasn't. From Wikipedia:

"In God We Trust" is the current national motto of the United States of America and of the Great State of Florida. It was so designated by an act of Congress in 1956 and officially supersedes "E Pluribus Unum" (From Many, One) according to United States Code, Title 36, Section 302. President Eisenhower signed the resolution into law on 30 July 1956.

So, once again... IGWT only became the national motto in the 1950's. The fact that it showed up here and there prior to that does not negate that point.

A nickel from before the "PC" 1950s. Must be a rarity. Or a hoax. < /sarc >
