In a letter to the editor in yesterday's Dallas Morning News (p. 3D), Bob Linker of Holly Lake Ranch, Texas, comments on a previous article about the new dollar coins. Bob says the article left out the fact that "In God we trust" does not appear on the coins. He says a citizen boycott of the new dollar has been organized.
If citizens want to boycott the new dollar, more power to them, but they better find another reason. If Bob will look on the edge of his George Washington dollar, he'll find "e pluribus unum" and "In God we trust." If it's not there, it's one of the few mint errors that slipped through, and I suspect Bob will reconsider the boycott as he can probably get quite a bit more than the one dollar face value for the coin.

Why can't I ever find a unique coin that is worth a lot of money?Just unlucky, I guess!
