I think maybe congress passed some law long, long ago that all coins were supposed to have presidents on them.
I wanted to see if this was true and found this: http://coins.about.com/od/uscoins/f/coin_portraits.htm So maybe there never was a law passed stating presidents had to be on coins.
I hope this turns out right. If not I'll post sometime later. This is one of my Franklin with cameo. :thumb:
Love the series and just got my first graded.one...an old ngc pf 65 which looks like that but didn't get cameo. Elegant solution: leave jfk on clad and put ben on the silver proof sets. No more under a million!
