<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ericl, post: 751522, member: 2697&quot;]Today is the sesquicentennial of the execution of John Brown, the terrorist-hero, and in a month and a half, the same anniversary of Lincoln&#039;s speech at Cooper Union. Tomorrow, the US senate is having hearings on whether or not to authorize a Civil War Sesquicentennial commission.</p><p><br /></p><p>While I support this measure, I don&#039;t think it goes far enough, here&#039;s what I think they should do as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reissue the Gettysburg and Antietam halves in clad. Modify them slightly and issue them in bags and rolls as well as individually, but with little or no premiums. Issue halves with similar themes between 2011 and 2015. Two a year. </p><p><br /></p><p>Sort of like the state quarters...and for the time being, get Kennedy off the half dollar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
