<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Todd Volker, post: 526576, member: 16686&quot;]I&#039;ve read Susan&#039;s piece and had a bit of time to think of it. First, I have a hard time believing the one major wholesaler was so affected by the week&#039;s Washington news. </p><p><br /></p><p>Second, a strike of 500,000 specialty coins will take a lot to move in any economy. . . the Lincoln Bicentennial is getting a general yawn from the public for some reason (perhaps because we no longer insist on giving kids good history and civics instruction?), much less interest than the whole Lews &amp; Clark thing (I have to say, L&amp;C is of much less interest to me than Lincoln. . . but more of the western states seemed deeply obsessed with the L&amp;C thing and this kept up general interest).</p><p><br /></p><p>I bought three proofs and anticipate getting a couple of the penny-dollar sets. Perhaps a lot more individual collectors are waiting for the sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>Susan&#039;s right about the Mint just not getting the word out about the dollar. I think the cent&#039;s promotion has been handled pretty well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
