I don't believe it.

I have bought from Sun King and they are OK, but a $10 bill says that upper case shell is plastic.
Now Senators are asking what, exactly, happened to the at least $63 million that Trump extracted from media and technology companies to settle his fake lawsuits against them.

It turns out that the fund set up to receive those millions, the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Fund, Inc., no longer exists — because of course it doesn’t.

The bottom panel is metal.

It's the AT that's all plastic except the internal plates.

Yeah, metal bottom plate, plastic top. Only worth something if you're willing to convert that odd layout
