Stamp your own coins, eh?

I mean, if the US Mint says coins are stamped and not minted I guess we can stop correcting all the newbies about correct terminology, eh?

By the way, I'm just making fat stacks of coins with this.  Got the auto-stamper machine upgrade and solving the coin shortage problem myself, y'all.

Review:  2/5  Pretty lame game.  But it's got coins.

Coins are "stamped" or "struck." Either is acceptable mint terminology. When a planchet is struck in a coining press, the process is called "minting" or "striking." If the cat jumps on the press just as a coin is struck it is called "lunch."

Is the cat lunch, or is it "Lunch!", while maintenance cleans the press?

That calls for an interpretation - or at least some catsup.

Yes, it is preferable to begin gambling as an adult. I suppose if I had known about gambling when I was 13 I would have lost everything, haha. On our Discord server, there is actually a gambling bot, and it's fine. Despite being a huge enthusiast of gambling, I've never developed an addiction to it. Online Casinos king johnnie vip is the only online casino I still frequent. When I have some free time, I only play once a week. I'm just reminded of how fortunate I can be at times.

The edge of the coin's disc on the obverse and reverse sides is framed by a border that protrudes over the relief image of both sides of the coin and in plan has the form of a continuous narrow ring

Ah, but there are 3 sides to a coin!
