How many people are silly enough to fall for this trick?

A "coin"-seller company is advertising the sale of $20, bill-sized "coins" commemorating the 7th anniversary of 9-11 and the Twin Towers. They're also called "silver leaf coin certificates" and are designated as legal tender. The sellers are telling people how you can now get these "coins" for no more than the $20 face value.

The problem is that they're charging $20 US, while these "coins" are Liberian Legal Tender ... not US ... $20 Liberian is only worth approximately 31.7 cents US. The advertiser glosses-over the fact that these coins are foreign currency AND at the end of the commercial they use fine print to quickly state that they're not affiliated with the US Mint.

Doesn't it just irk you how these guys are getting away with this on national TV?

Clever, very clever! Quite a brilliant idea - to sell a coin worth 31.7 cents for $20 (plus shipping & handling I'm sure).
