Well, I don't know what one would do with 20,000 nickels that--as you acknowledged--won't be worth noticeably above five cents apiece in one's...
"I'm glad not everybody likes and buys the same kind of stuff I do."
If you just like the designs, wouldn't you want to see them in circulation?
"Modern" is a relative term, of course.
My least favorite current coin is the penny, of course--one of the least-valuable coins ever circulated.

Handling circulated coins is one of the main ways I enjoy them.
As recently as one year ago I recall seeing 10c candies in a very-small-town store where I used to live. Still, if someone in a position of...
If you let yourself become accustomed to the current dollar coins you will find that they are in fact readily distinguishable. I carry Sac/Prez...
Then, if we want to add new coins in that scheme, the denominations to look at would be two-dime, two-dollar, five-dollar, etc.
