Default Scary Canadian Spy Coin!

Someone has been watching that box set of "24 - Season One" too many times...

Quote:
WASHINGTON - An odd-looking Canadian coin with a bright red flower was the culprit behind a U.S. Defense Department false espionage warning earlier this year about mysterious coin-like objects with radio frequency transmitters, The Associated Press has learned.

The harmless "poppy coin" was so unfamiliar to suspicious U.S. Army contractors traveling in Canada that they filed confidential espionage accounts about them. The worried contractors described the coins as "anomalous" and "filled with something man-made that looked like nano-technology," according to once-classified U.S. government reports and e-mails obtained by the AP.

You need a pair, too. And we need new shoes to coordinate.

Supposedly the "Canadian Spy Coin" is the over-hyped story that just won't die.
