SCOTT MCCLAINE, owner of CLATSOP COIN, was featured in the news lately on KATU’s “PROBLEM SOLVERS – ON YOUR SIDE” (http://tinyurl.com/bago coins).

Intrigued by an advertisement, CHERI BARNARD, bought a bag of supposedly valuable and collectible coins for $129 from The World Reserve Monetary Exchange. The company’s website touts Mary Ellen Withrow, retired 40th U.S. treasurer, as being an “executive advisor.” It all looks very official.
