Coin and Paper Money Collecting/Misprinted coil

Question
Do you know if this is true or not?  On a 2007 silver dollar, there are supposedly a misprint on the rim of some of these.  It was rumored to have printed "IN GOD WE TRUST" on the edge.  I was just wondering because I have one like that, and I had heard not long ago about this.
Thanks for responding

Answer
Kevin,
All 2007 silver dollars are supposed to have "In God We Trust", "E Pluribus Unum" and the date and mintmark on the rim (edge).
The error is that some coins never made it thru the final rim process and none of those thing are printed.
They are being called "Plain Edge Dollars" and are selling on eBay.
