Well, it is very clear that President Donald J. Trump has some supporters in Israel. And to rank him in contribution to Israeli history along side of Cyrus is amazing. (this is not Israeli currency)

Oh no, that’ll be something else for Hellary to claim she deserved.

Wonderful!
The question is, will CNN foam at the mouth or ignore it?

Here’s a thread from February:

And where the coin can be obtained:

Thank you for saying. I think it is a huge complement to President Trump.

I believe Hillary is about to get what she deserves. It will not be an honor.

The last president was Ronald Reagan. None of the recent turkeys merited coinage! Only great men and women achieve this honor yet MSM will not mention this.

Trump is not a small thinker. His detractors and haters can pound sand. The people who count have his back, we will win this one. Besides, winning is what he does best.

It appears several groups minted such coins. None of them alike. Thanks for the links, I had missed them.

They will foam at the mouth and never mention anything about it.

But it will haunt them none the less.

I bet they sell a lot of them. And I believe many in Israel really do appreciate Trump. I know he and Bibi have been close friends a long time.

Obozo is the one who’s head is exploding now. smile.

The article says “symbolic” coin. On the “heads” side in the photo I don’t see any denomination.

So, isn’t this more of a commemorative medallion? Nice, but what’s the big deal?

From the first line under the picture of the coin:

“(this is not Israeli currency)”

Yes, it is a commemorative coin from a Jewish religious NGO. After I posted this I was informed that there appears to be other groups in Israel who have had similar coins struck.

I never implied it was anything more.

I wonder how long before moving our embassy back to Tel Aviv is a plank in the Democratic Party’s platform. I have no doubt that it would have a large number of supporters.

No disparagement towards you intended.

But, my first reaction when I heard of this last week was, “Wow! An Israeli coin with Trump on it!”

But when I realized it was a non-governmental agency, well, it was disappointing. It’s like the many medallions you see struck from private minting companies. Some are worth the metal they are composed of; others are more like the output of machines you put a penny into to squeeze it into a medallion.

My disappointment doesn’t have anything to do with your post.
