| Congress approves HR90210 - Teenage Drama Commemorative Quarter Dollar Act
HR90210, U.S. Congress has just been approved. The bill calls for the production of six quarter dollar coins to be produced in 2017 featuring the following designs emblematic of the teenage dramas that have contributed the most to our culture:
January-February - Beverly Hills, 90210
March-April - Melrose Place
May-June - The O.C.
July-August - The Hills
September-October - Gossip Girl
November-December - One Tree Hill
State Representative Conrad (I-CA) drafted the bill, stating that such coins would "give an incentive to our young people to collect coins and give them a new appreciation for what sits in their pocket beside their iPhone." The bill also requires that a 10-oz silver proof commemorative dollar be issued alongside each new coin design, bearing on one side a design emblematic of each television show, and on the other side a portrait of George Washington along with a small 'CW' logo beside the mintmark. Designs will be chosen from those sent in by interested participants as part of the U.S. Mint's Teenage Dramatic Infusion program.
