Counterfeit Loonies

Rec'd this email:

   I was recently given my first counterfeit loonie as change from a
hotdog vendor. This counterfeit loonie is actually being produced
by the American government. Despite being the same size, weight
and color as a real loonie, it has some easily identifiable discrepancies
that should allow you to identify it. First is, that they got the
coin backwards. They have the Queen on the back, and an image
of a loon on the front. The particular loon chosen was George
Washington on the coin I received. Also, the Queen's portrait is also
not a very good likeness, it is at some distance, and she is holding
a torch above her head (they also got the crown all wrong). This
counterfeit coin is only worth 96 cents currently, but is expected
to be worthless in the very near future.
   So beware, check your change, stop this plague before it
starts.
