Message:: [QUOTE="Peter Rosconi, post: 1915296, member: 70628"]I've been lurking on this site for quite a while and I happened to see this thread. I admire VCC for his efforts to take the initiative on what should or should not be on the US Mint's product line. I think that we should not come down hard on VCC for coming up with ideas for the US Mint and this hobby to chew on. I think that his ideas about reissuing classic gold coins is a great idea and I would buy them myself. Like many other people who love classic gold coins, I bought the 2009 UHR gold coin which is very popular and was very well received. I think that despite the criticism that has been presented towards VCC on the classic coin design idea, the US Mint reissuing classic coin designs will be well received. I think that the criticism expressed in this thread was not constructive at all and it looked like everyone wanted to tear VCC down. I think that the criticism should have been done much more constructively because we should appreciate people taking the initiative to have a greater voice on the US Mint's product line. But I also believe that VCC could have made his case better because he did not do the greatest job in making his argument which he even admitted. VCC has my support when it comes to reissuing classic coin designs because irrespective of what members here say, they are well received by the coin collecting public; the 2009 UHR gold coin is a perfect example of that.[/QUOTE]
