<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 2682366, member: 76194&quot;]If the mint changed designs on the penny, nickel, dime, quarter, half-dollar and dollar every 20 years (and skipped dead presidents for a while as it&#039;s been done to death), and revamped it&#039;s commemorative program to produce fewer higher quality designs, everything would be fixed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, Congress should decree that the $1 bill would stop being produced, and phase out the $5 bill within 5 years in favor of a $5 coin. And it would be nice if the dollar and $5 coin would follow the 20 years change of design with no dead presidents formula. Come to think of it, that&#039;s also the perfect time to phase out the penny.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m tired of Lincoln, Jefferson, Washington, and Kennedy on the coinage for so many decades. It becomes borringly repetitive. And don&#039;t even get me started on the mess that is US Commemoratives.</p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t hold your breath though. If there is one thing this country has proven lately is that there is no willpower to change and revamp our borring modern coinage. The golden years are many decades behind us, sadly![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
