the U.S. Secrete Service would be more involved.

Section 750.261 of Michigan's Penal Code explicitly makes illegal
possession of less [sic] than 5 counterfeit coins with intent to utter
and pass the same as true.
Many states have similar measures. For example, in Massachusetts the
cutoff is 10 coins instead of 5:

She should have said that she is a numismatist with a "black cabinet"
for studying counterfeits.
She could have pointed to all of the serious students of "bogos" in
the Bust Half Nut Club.
In an information society, the disadvantaged are those who lack
