    We had a turkey hang out in and roost in my front yard for a couple of days. A bit odd for this deep into Suburbia.

    I would use a patriotic design on the obv, with a small eagle reverse.
    I don't do that AI stuff.

    I like that design @Dafydd I would buy a coin with that design.
    I am afraid though we wouldn't have a squirrel problem, we would have a turkey problem. Or, better yet they would be our beloved pets. Folks would be taking them for a walk every evening.

    Maybe an Eagle rather than a Turkey though. :)

    A Bald Eagle would never let you pet it. ;)
    And I doubt they are as tasty.

    A Turkey can be pretty mean also, no?

    The Seated design is my favorite but I don't think they would look right in clad.

    For Christ's sake, none. As much as I like the classic vintage, got to move on with the times. It's like beating a dead horse.

    While I understand your sentiment, I don't really care much for the designs of the past fifty years (although the eagle landing on the moon on the reverse of the Eisenhower dollar is pretty nice, IMO). However, I do like the design choice for the 2026 dime.

    Turkeys are very mean!

    Turkeys? Mean? We saw them mating in our yard and the male stood with his claws wrapped around the females head, pinning her to the ground so she couldn’t get away. Now that’s mean.
