    Oddly enough probably the dime. It's the only one that hasn't had a makeover. Aside from that, probably the presidental dollars...although the historian in me likes having a display of all the presidents.

    Not a big fan of the new Lincolns, I think the series could have used a nice obverse change.

    Can I vote for two? I really dislike the shield cent but I really hate looking at Jefferson's zombie face too. I can't decide which I dislike more.

    I never did care for the Presidential dollar coin. The attempt at a gold color, makes it look like play money I had as a kid. In fact, I liquidated all mine except those in the mint silver proof sets. I was considering the Roosevelt dime, but at least the engraving on the reverse is acceptable. A bit dated, but acceptable.

    I voted for the Sac dollar. It reminds me of why everyone hates Congress. They can't even kill this useless program. Instead, they renamed it to the Native American Dollar.

    Roosevelt dime. No real reason, I just find it plain and lame.

    American Gold Buffalo - a gold version of the Buffalo Nickel which is just okay in "nickel" color, and IMHO awful in gold.

    I agree. All of the cents through half dollars are long, long overdue for completely new designs on both sides. The dollar coins are just plain ugly, both the squaws and the dead presidents.

    My vote all of em at least any and all presidential coins the ase are at least the walking liberty and the buffaloes are a classic design too let's go back to the attractive depictions of liberty not some old dead guys!!

    Presidential dollars. Not to be political, but there are certain faces I really never thought I'd see on a coin.

    I'm no fan of the design of the dollar coins, but the dollar BILL is what is useless and needs to be done away with.

    Did the person say why they wouldn't take those three? Seems odd that there were specific presidents they would not take. Legally they can't refuse any of them.

    I didnt vote because for me it is a toss-up between the ATB quarters, small dollars, and shield cents...
