Okay, those previous two comments I made, IGNORE THEM. I apologize! The coins arrived and they're beautiful.
I repeat, IGNORE THE PREVIOUS TWO COMMENTS I MADE!!! THE COINS ARRIVED!!!
For those who have given me negative remarks, you were right to do so!! lol! In fact I will add to that tally!!
This has been a wonderful and yet incredibly befuddling day! I have a few theories as to why the transaction "appeared" the way it did but we'll leave that for later!
Folks, this appears to be a scam unfortunately. "This sounds to good to be true." Exactly, it is not true. Excellently executed and TIMED scam to launch this just a few days after the End The Fed rally.
Seriously, do not order any coins or open an account with them. Trust me.
also that the lakota free bank has nothing to do with the republic of lakota. check the forum on the RoL's website for a sticky comment about how the guy running this has scammed the RoL in the past, too.
be aware that Canupa Gluha Mani, who answers emails for the bank, has the following aliases in the nebraskan jail system: LITTLEHORSE RICHARD LYNN LITTLEHOUSE RICHARD LYNN MARTIN ANTHONY B MARTIN DUANE ANTHONY MARTIN DUANE ANTHONY, SR. MARTIN JOHNATHON L MARTINEZ DUANE MARTINEZ DWANE RICHARD LITTLEHORSE, RICHARD LYNN LITTLEHOUSE, RICHARD LYNN MARTIN DWAYNE MARTIN, DUANE ANTHONY SR MARTIN, JOHNATHON L. MARTINEZ DUANE
IMHO everyone makes a mistake by putting "dollar" on their "medallion". If I wanted to create a substitute currency, I'd just make it an "ounce". (Dollar was a corruption of the word "thaller", the name of a silversmith.) Like we don't know the price of silver in worthless Federal Reserve Notes.
It appears to be a scam. This is most unfortunate. There is nothing on the Republic of Lakotah's website about the launch. There is only a small mention under the "projects" section that talks about how they look to have their own bank in the future.
I unfortunately did order a few coins (nothing huge so I'll be fine) and the order is tracked to TYENT which is a Water Ionizer company. Hmmm... not good.
The same people who make the Lakota coin will sell you a silver "Neo-Coin" with a picture of Dick Cheney on the obverse. If you want to pay up to $40 for a silver round that's worth about $14, go right ahead. Personally, I am waiting for a deal to come through with a business associate from Nigeria. I might buy a Lakotah coin when they correct the spelling. The Republic of Lakotah spells it with a final h. w-w-w (dot) republicofdekotah (dot) com.
Are the views stuck at "666", ? That be a little bit strange.
At least the natives aren't as stupid as the majority of US citizens. Paper issued by a private bank is worthless, the paper is only as valuable as the government. How much value do you put on the Federal Government, I wouldn't give two bits for the entire US government.
Brave Indians leading the way...Sovereign Nation with the right to have their own system .... i bet the FEDS are furious and don't want this news to spread...march on!
The markup is significantly smaller if you buy very large quantities, like over 500. It's still a bit high even then, but something like $15 instead of $50. I think the markups are still WAY too high for smaller quantities.
Not to be a downer, but all these coins are just collectibles. I wouldn't recommend spending over $12 / coin if you really want to protect your wealth or start a currency with your local American Indian community.
Restore the Republics release states : "The Free Lakota Bank issues an American Open Currency Standard Approved currency, making it readily accepted for trade by over 10,000 merchants and businesses across the continent."
They are working on lowering the price for buyers, give them time.
Newsletter recieved today from Lakota Bank states, "a great number of you would like to know how you can access our silver currency at a discount for delivery or deposit. I will send an email later today regarding the "Silver Buyer's Club", a service that aggregates smaller purchases to obtain volume discount rates."
Lakota silver rounds are terrific looking coins

I love this idea, I hate the fed, but Lakota silver rounds are not competitively priced, and they are not divisible.

@reinkefj old post I know but actually a dollar is 23 grams of gold. It was a weight in gold used as a measurement. Peace.

Of course you can trade it since it is silver. You'll just get $40 less than what you paid for.

You can get silver for $12/oz? Sign me up!
Where I live (Houston) you're lucky if you can find silver bullion for $14, and that's at $2000 quantities.
The COMEX prices are absolute bullshit, if you can find silver anywhere near the "market" prices, please tell me.
