<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 751598, member: 66"]I like the concept of the Gettysburg and Antietam halves, only problem is they won't circulate. To me a commemorative is supposed to get people to remember something, a person, a place, or an event. If no one ever sees it then no one remembers and it commemorates nothing. The only real circulating commemorative we have ever had was the Bicentennial quarter (and to a lesser extent the state quarters). And people know the bicentennial quarter, they recognize it and most know what it was for. It fulfills the meaning of a commemorative.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
