[QUOTE="jody526, post: 3764, member: 578"]Thanks for asking. I am very much in favor of Jefferson and Montecello remaining as the permanant devices on our five cent coin. I am also hopeful that Washington will forever be depicted on the quarter. My reasons are not as selfish as they may seem. I am also disapointed that Franklin was replaced on the half. Depictions of our Founding Fathers serve as a constant reminder to future generations as to just how great these men were. They were not merely politicians or policy makers. They were the stuff legends are made of. These men didn't lobby and debate issues that were socially acceptable. They created the greatest nation the world has ever known. Now I know I'm probably in the minority when it comes to changing coinage designs, and I'll agree that some things are due for a change, but I also firmly believe that some things are better left alone. JMHO, Jody[/QUOTE]
