<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dymaxion22, post: 49126, member: 964&quot;]This is a very good point.&nbsp; I agree that a past Presidents series might be fun and educational, and mmaaaaaybe I don&#039;t even mind if the ex-Presidents depicted on the coins were still living.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>But what if sometime in the future, say, the coin series &quot;caught up&quot; to the living then-CURRENT President?&nbsp; Would those of you that support the Presidential coin series support having the current sitting President on a coin? </p><p><br /></p><p>That is where I think it crosses a line for me.&nbsp; I think the reasons cited above by GDJ for not having political leaders on coins is important.&nbsp; I&#039;d much rather have Lady Liberty on my coins that our all-too fallible political leaders.&nbsp; Not to mention the fact that if the (then) current President was on the coin, some might argue that such a position of reverence would be an unfair advantage in future elections (as well as free campaign advertising).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
