“Pocket change is what people see.” Yes, and if they only see dead Presidents on that change they will be led to think that the laws are made by Presidents instead of being executed and obeyed by them. If we bring back Liberty we may restore the Constitution and the Republic.

When Kate Winslet handed Leonardo Decaprio the dime for the naked portrait. The dime she handed him was the Roosevelt dime that want in exsistance.

Don’t really care for the design especially the hair but we do need a new design. Atleast it would be different.

As great as these Presidents were it’s way past time for change. Coin designs based on the conceps of Liberty, Justice, and other “American” themes would be a welcome change!!! I doubt this will happen as I see politics will get in the way again!! 🙁

Its like a purple elephant occasion. Where are all these great coins? I would gladly take $20 worth of them right now. Just copper clad. Something is wrong with the money supply.

The dime has been the same for too long. I think they should make it bigger and with a picture of the flag on one side and Clinton on the other or Al Gore. I don’t know why living presidents or vice presidents can not be on coins. Also it should be made like a nickel 75 copper and 25 nickel to give it actual value. No switching to some tuna fish can metal like they want.

This is the reason we were saddled with the Susan B. Anthony dollar in 1979, and it will be the reason we’re saddled with, say, Andrea Dworkin quarters and Carrie Nation dimes. *shudder* I’d rather stick with the Presidents, thank you very much.

Modern coin minting and collecting in the United States is boring compared to Canadian and Australian coins (just to name several countries that understand that people want to collect coins as well as spend them. I hope this bill passes through congress.
