<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tommyc03, post: 3006028, member: 17665&quot;]To be honest, I&#039;m not sure what could be done with the dime. It has such a small area to be worked with without crowding the coin. I was actually surprised that so much was able to be done with the 2009 cents. But the new(er) Shield cent is atrocious. The Shield is bland and the loss of detail on the obverse is equally so. Do be careful what you wish for. On the other hand, the half dollar needs to be eliminated. It has no commercial use and IMHO is only still produced to off set the costs of the cent and nickel to balance the books every year. Duplication in the Proof Clad sets crossed over to the Silver Proof sets should also be eliminated. We do not need two sets of duplicate coins to try and get rid of the extra coins just to complete our sets. What might be interesting is a Proof set with all silver coins including the cent, nickel and dollar coins. It might restart coin collecting as we now know it and bring in a new generation of collectors. But I am rambling.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
