<p>[QUOTE=&quot;merrill01, post: 2095029, member: 70734&quot;]A new coin.</p><p>&nbsp; I see a new coin for circulation, it would be a $10.00 coin, larger than a nickle but smaller than a quarter, and worth $10.00. It also would be bi-metalic. Like so many other countries. It would not be confused with any other coin, unlike the SBA which was like a quarter.</p><p>Six or seven of these coins could fill almost any tank with gas. They could also be used to buy grocerys or any thing else.</p><p>&nbsp; Being that size they could also be easily carried in your pocket. The design of the coin would be put into competition. The winner would see the coin in ciculation. It would not contain images of any dead presidents, but would convey the image of liberty, and justice for all.</p><p>Much like the Standing Liberty Quarter. That being said, it would be up for competition. With all designs considered. This would be a great break for all of our current coins, and a good oportunity for our public to decide the coins to fill our future.</p><p>&nbsp; Our coins WERE to be a thing of beauty, something that WAS admired by all other countries. Why they only hold images of dead presidents now is a wonder. Not to discourage our heritage, but I really don&#039;t think that George Washington would like the fact that his image represents all that is held in this new land.</p><p>&nbsp; It is a new country, a new land. That being said, I think we need new coinage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
