<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 572831, member: 5233&quot;]So, over the last several months I have conducted a series of polls to determine which historical design the member s of Coin Talk would like to see return to our coins.&nbsp; We have gotten through the half dollar so far and now will begin the final poll for circulation coins.&nbsp; We may do bullion designs as well…you never know.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>So, here are the <b>&quot;rules&quot;</b> of my little scenario. The premise is, the US government has decided to change the design on all coins to a &quot;historical&quot; design based on a popular vote. The idea is that the coins will reflect the best America has ever used. However, they are using the current planchet still.&nbsp; This week&#039;s poll is the Dollar...but no matter what the winning design is, it would be made on a 26.5mm diameter smooth edge “golden” planchet.&nbsp; The rim of the coin would either be completely smooth or having writing on it depending on the original design’s specifications.</p><p><br /></p><p>The poll will run for 7 days and you may only vote for one choice.</p><p><br /></p><p>*I know that there were 2 major reverse designs for the Draped Bust Dollar but due to the limited number of poll spaces I had to combine the coin into one design.&nbsp; The same is true for the Sacajawea Dollar.&nbsp; If either coin wins I might run a tie-breaker poll. </p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center"><u><b>Previous Winning Designs</b></u></p><p><u>Cent</u>: <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44401" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44401">Flying Eagle Cent</a> 34.15% of vote</p><p><u>Nickel</u>: <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44756" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44756">Buffalo Nickel</a> 39.13% of vote</p><p><u>Dime</u>: <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t45199/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t45199/">Mercury Dime</a> 74.00% of vote</p><p><u>Quarter Dollar</u>: <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t45565/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t45565/">Standing Liberty Quarter</a> 79.31% of vote</p><p><u>Half Dollar</u>: <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t51185/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t51185/">Walking Liberty Half Dollar</a> 68.00% of vote[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
