Well after much ballyhoo, paranoia, and three separate warnings about the dreaded Canadian spy coins,
American officials have sheepishly & quietly admitted that they were just quarters afterall.

The fear was over our commemorative poppy quarters.

No spy device, no RFIDs, just a 25 cent piece with a pretty red poppy in the centre.

Are these guys EVER going to get tired of making such fools out of themselves with such rampant paranoia?  ::)

What a bunch of ignoramusses! At least hundreds of thousands of people didn't get killed ...this time.

Don't be rolling your big eyeballs at me mister!  >:(

Further details were secret, according to the U.S. Defense Security Service, which issued the warning to the Pentagon's classified contractors. The government insists the incidents happened, and the risk was genuine.

"What's in the report is true," said Martha Deutscher, a spokeswoman for the security service.

That still doesn't make up for "Loverboy"

There's enough egg from that to make a omelette the size of Quebec.
