<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fretboard, post: 1584569, member: 19765&quot;]Ok friends let&#039;s just say for the fun of it that you are the Director of the US Mint and you wanted to have a half dollar size coin minted.&nbsp; The rules of this format are that there isn&#039;t a Congress to deal with, no Congressional flak whatsoever.&nbsp; This is a one time shot you get as the make believe Director of the US Mint.&nbsp; Anyways the powers that be, want you to choose the design.&nbsp; You can choose the Lincoln cent as the design or the Mercury dime as the design just keep this in mind.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The coin is gonna be a half dollar size coin and it&#039;s even gonna be 90% silver but for all intents and purposes it will have the new inflation added face value of&nbsp; $10.&nbsp; You could even say it&#039;s a new 10 dollar coin instead of a half dollar if you want. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Anyways, any comments?&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, I&#039;ll start.&nbsp; I would choose the St. Gaudens $20 gold piece design, both obverse and reverse.&nbsp; I would have it minted in a $10, 90% silver coin the size of a half dollar.&nbsp; Just for fun y&#039;all.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
