<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1457126, member: 22143&quot;]If marriage is a partnership, then I would say the 40 presidents they were married to, would have never made it to that position without a lot of sacrifice from these women.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I find the First Spouse coins particularly interesting because they explore a part of the White House history that is rarely talked about.&nbsp;&nbsp; Each of these coins are reminders of a bit of Americana and from that perspective do what coins are suppose to do beyond being just a currency token.&nbsp; That is, give us a link to the place they are from.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s fascinating that so many coin collectors have cast huge disgust at these coins such as calling them fuglies, uglies, etc and routinely predicting their demise yet I don&#039;t understand why any collector would wish for &quot;less&quot; selection from the mint.&nbsp; &nbsp; Simply don&#039;t collect them if you don&#039;t want them and if you you want the mint to make something else, then petition your congressman or senator to push for whatever series floats your boat.&nbsp;&nbsp; We all have that ability to influence what the mint produces.&nbsp;&nbsp; This is exactly how the First Spouse coin series came into being in the first place.</p><p><br /></p><p>IMO, this series will not be canceled.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
