To follow-up on my old post, I thought I would mention that Eliot Spitzer has gotten a court order halting the sale of those 9/11 coins. If they're found liable for deceptive advertising (coins are silver plated not silver, they're not US tender but the Northern Marianas Islands, etc.), that's $500 per violation, which includes every broadcast of the advertisement. I appreciate that some of their money goes to charity, but a halt to those ads seems like the right thing to do.
