Howdy, I am new here, but it looks like there is not too much activity around here lately, hopefully I can help it a little bit. Have anyone heard of the Mattole Free State and their currency the Petol? I live in far Northern California near the remote Mattole River Valley were a gentleman there has minted up lots of coins in different denominations of the Petol, mostly in .999 silver but brass as well, good at their local farmers market and store. They are super cool, with the theme of creating a sustainable society. I went down there and picked some up twice in the last couple years, but the main guy did not want to part with much as they want to actually keep it local for the most part. If you are interested send me a message and I'll post pictures. I also have a news article on project around here somewhere. Peace!

Hi! Thanks so much for posting a message on our site!! Yeah, things have been pretty slow around here lately...most of the correspondence between USNS members takes place at Yahoo Groups: groups.yahoo.com/group/UnrecognisedStatesNumismaticSociety/ We are indeed familiar with the Mattole coins. These are great coins!! Oded Paz, the founder of the USNS, was an official distributor of these coins. If you go to the USNS site at Yahoo Groups you will see some posts about the Mattole coins.
