Slapshot (jokingly) brought up Disney Dollars, earlier in this thread. I thought I'd use that as a springboard to point something out:

Note that in the upper righthand corner, it plainly states: "May be used as legal tender only at Disneyland Park, Disneyland Hotel," yaddah yaddah yaddah.

... and, again, please note the complete and utter lack of any such notice, anywhere on either side of the "Liberty Coin" pictured upthread.

I find this comment absurd. Anytime I trade anything to one of my friends or neighbors it also does not include the notice that it is not legal tender.

The idea that a private company cannot SELL silver or any other precious metal does not make sense. There are many companies that have gold, silver, copper, or other precious metals in vaults and they sell certificates for the metal in their vaults. You own it they store it. It is too heavy to ship and it is not secure in your basement.

But this company does not only do that, (store your silver) they will actually sell you the silver and let you store it yourself or trade it like money. I have a step-son that likes to leave them for tips in resturants. Yes the silver has a denomination on it but so does a gallon of gasoline, what is the difference? The $10 silver coins he bought several years are worth considerably more than $10 now. Silver is trading at about $15 an oz now.

Does is say anywhere that it IS legal tender? Is there any law that says that it must address whether or not it is legal tender, one way or another?
