The CCAC has recommended deign 1 for both the Lincoln cent and Jefferson nickel. Because a sesquicentennial only happens once, I am wondering if the Mint would consider changing the cent to a 1 year only pure copper composition as well as the Philadelphia & Denver minted Kennedy halves along with the 'base' proof to a 40% silver composition. Opinions?
It’s doubtful. They have rarely accepted advice in the past, why do you think they will listen now?…imo…Spark
I writes my congressman all the time trying to get commem half dollars produced in silver rather than cupro/nickel.........deaf ears.
Only Congress can make changes and approve designs for coins. The mint just does what Congress tells them to do.
