<p>[QUOTE="BATTERup646, post: 2457160, member: 75931"]I believe the cent should stay. Even if it is taken out, it would be put in mint sets like the half dollar. If it is taken out however, They should move Lincoln onto another coin. FDR should stay, I mean with the whole march of dimes thing. I'd also like a series like the presidential dollars, but only influential Americans like Walt Disney or Thomas Edison. The cent and nickel don't cost more than what they are worth to mint either. Anyway the nickel can easily be saved by replacing the copper composition with zinc. I also believe mint sets should have coins that were stamped with more detailed dies, and have their original composition. Ex. Lincoln penny = 95% copper, 5% tin & zinc. I don't believe the dollar note should be ceased, only production should be as much as the $2. And face it, we need a $500 note, maybe even a $1,000. I'm with keeping presidents (and presidents only, so no Ben or Alex) on the bills, and keep lady liberty on all other coinage except the penny and dime, and quarter. And I would also like the introduction of a 20 cent piece. What I would like the most would be a reintroduction of the Peace Dollar, only in clad composition. I believe only Lady Liberty should be on circulating money, not that I don't want a woman on any issue, I actually do. But I do believe it's kind of silly adding a mural on the back of the $5. I would instead like the likeness of the painting "The Peacemakers" on the back of the new $5.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a4/The_Peacemakers_1868.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>George P.A.
