<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1398772, member: 66&quot;]The only coinage acts that have had start and end dates were the Westward Journey nickels, the state and ATB quarters, and the Presidential dollars.&nbsp; And those only have them because they are commemorating a specific thing in series.&nbsp; When you run out of states or Presidents your done.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>No such law exists.&nbsp; Your confusing it with the Act of 1890 that states that a coin design can&#039;t be changed any more often than 25 years except by Congressional action.&nbsp; After 25 years it can be changed at any time by the Secretary of the Treasury.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for design changes and public reaction in the past, until the change of the Ike to the SBA the public was not consulted.&nbsp; But the government writings pretty much without exception always described the new proposed designs&nbsp; as being a great improvement over the the generally poor and ugly designs currently on the coinage.&nbsp; Then typically when the new coins came out the designs were usually panned.&nbsp; I&#039;m not sure if there was any new design that wasn&#039;t give a thumbs down.&nbsp; Although often they would still be described as an improvement over what we had before.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
