“In a money-saving move, the new quarters will be aluminum foil-covered cardboard. Those who have seen prototypes claim they look real from beyond 10 feet. If moisture becomes a problem, the cardboard will be waterproofed.”
PE obama has indicated that his first action as president will be to commission designs for the other 57 states.
