Bill,

Now that you agree there is NO coin, are you ready to realize the next level 
and realize there IS a coin but it is simply an empty form that the mind 
interprets as a coin rather than the solid substantial pecuniary thing it first 
appeared to be?

Recall the complete teaching of the master:

Originally I thought coins were coins...
Then I realized there were no coins....
But finally there are coins again as the true nature of coins is realized....

You are at stage two. Ready for stage three?
:-)
