These guys were arrested, not for counterfeiting federal reserve notes, but for making coins which might be mistaken by someone as 'money' (as defined by the Federal Reserve). It's a joke that someone might mistake something made of silver or gold for the plastic coins put out by the Fed Res, but the larger point is that infringing upon the government/fed res money printing monopoly generally results in quite harsh treatment.
How on earth do these two dudes in italy just walk away? That can't be the end of the story. |
Which government really wanted them?
