In early 2007 the United States Defense Department issued an espionage warning about Canadian coins with suspicious "nano-technology" that contained radio frequency transmitters. The report turned out to be a major embarrassment to the government. The coin in question turned out to be a regular issue 2004 Canadian colored Poppy quarter. The Poppy quarter was the first colored coin issued for general circulation in the world and its unique colored center with fluorescent security coating had never been seen before. Now, the government’s embarrassing gaffe can be your opportunity to grab a coin with one of the most amazing stories in history for a bargain price.
