[QUOTE="National dealer, post: 10014, member: 487"]I took Saints, Walkers, Seated Libertys, Buffalo's, Capped bust, and even Flowing Hair designs. All agreed that they were beautiful, but are afraid of change. They are afraid if the mint is in charge of our nations coin designs again, we may just lose a dead president. The Jefferson is a perfect example. As soon as the word leaked out that the Mint was considering change (which was perfectly legal) Virginia jumped in and got a law passed that Jefferson and Monticello would remain on the Five Cent coin from 2006 to the end of time. While many are happy with this, I for one cannot sit back and accept it. I am doing everything in my power to make sure we do not lose all of our coinage to this shortsightedness. It is a sad day when forever happens. :([/QUOTE]
