The problem - save for what Don Cragun already explained - "$$" is short for "the PID of the current process" and interpreted by the shell that way. YOu can test that with the following script:
Start this script and from another terminal do:
substituting "<PID>" with the displayed number. You will see that the shell process has exactly this process number. (Stop the script with "CTRL-C" afterwards.)
So, even if you would manage to assign the value to such an ill-named variable you would have no possibility to retrieve it from there because any time you write "$$" it will be translated to the PID. If you want to simply have the "$$" in the output you can use "\" to escape the "$":
