<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tmoneyeagles, post: 909522, member: 17557&quot;]I&#039;ve always thought that the symbolic representation of Liberty on our coins is the best direction that our currency could go in.</p><p><br /></p><p>At the moment we have junk. We have modern junk, with dead people on our coins. We worship people who have helped shaped this country, even though they may be controversial. We completely forget about the ideas of which this country was founded.</p><p><br /></p><p>The nicest coins this country has ever seen, were when we had Lady Liberty on our coins. Sure, I like me a Jefferson Nickel or a Washington Quarter, but I&#039;d prefer the design of a Standing Liberty or a Bustie 10 times out of 10.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 2010 cent could&#039;ve been such a beautiful coin, but what do they do? They select a crappy little shield to put on the coin that might look okay in hand, but compare it to the wheat cent, and I choose that wheatie every time!</p><p><br /></p><p>The new Sac&#039;s vs. the old Sac&#039;s. Old Sac&#039;s please.</p><p><br /></p><p>Presidential Dollars-Garbage...Garbage....Garbage. Ugly, garbage with high mintages.</p><p><br /></p><p>The State Quarter program is the only series of coins, that are modern, that I really really like. Most of the things made today are just drowning the hobby. </p><p><br /></p><p>Hopefully, one of these years, we&#039;ll get a Liberty Commemorative, instead of honoring somebody, like we do all the time. Last time was 2008, with the Bald Eagle. That was the most beautiful Commemorative we&#039;ve had in quite some time.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;ll never happen though, our circulating currency will have dead guys for the rest of its life, until our country completely rids of physical currency.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
