I have not followed the courts' interpretation of the Hobby protection Act, since there has been virtually none. But the act does NOT apply to US items only. It clearly covers colonial coins. It covers any "numismatic item" but excludes any "re-issue or re-strike of any original numismatric item by the United States or any foreign government."
Is there a citation for the fugio case? Proving when something was made or imported is another issue...
