[QUOTE="The Half Dime, post: 26246582, member: 153164"]Here is an interesting scenario: You've just gotten a letter in the mail stating that you are in charge of creating the Semiquincentennial coin designs. This includes the nickel, the dime, all 5 quarters, the half dollar, and a special-issue proof cent. The thing is, you have some designs in mind but only 14 days to reply. What designs are your choice for the 250th anniversary coins? All I can say is, they ought to make a colorized proof set to top it all off. On a side note, I also think a 50th anniversary silver dollar and half dollar should be made as a tribute to "Weird Al" Yankovic - next year will be 50 years since he recorded the song "Belvedere Cruisin" and sent it in to Dr. Demento's show to be played. I don't care what the price is, I'd buy it since I'm a big fan of Al.
