[QUOTE="hcmusicguy, post: 7762235, member: 59377"]If I designed a modern US coinage... $1 composition as is, remove the remaining SBA from circulation. We can continue the Sacagawea design. I've grown fond of her. But no more goofy rotating designs. $1 bills gone. $2 bimetallic. Since it would be our highest denomination circulating coin, it should be a liberty design of the utmost intricity and beauty. $2 bills gone, $5 is lowest paper denomination. I'll go further..... 50c. Ditch Kennedy and move on to something else. I have no problem maintaining the current size. But this should be the one with the rotating commemorative designs. 25c. Gone. 20c. The size would be about that of the current nickel. Composition I am not sure, maybe a multi-sided brass coin not unlike the late British three pence. 10c. Size and composition probably as is or in copper, with a simple utilitarian design. 5c and 1c. Gone.[/QUOTE]
