<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 26505235, member: 101855&quot;]I agree with you that no living president, who is still in office, should appear on a current coin. I disagree with you that is not right to have a dead president on one. </p><p><br /></p><p>I was 14 when JFK was assassinated. The feeling of shock and sadness was so strong at that time that there was nothing political about it. It didn&#039;t help LBJ get elected. The vast majority of people wanted JFK to be honored and rememebered. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the only U.S. coin which was issued when the president was in office, the 1926 Sesquicentennial commemorative half dollar. The president was Calvin Cooledge. Some people, who didn&#039;t like Cooledge, commented that it was hard to tell if he were dead or alive. He was known as &quot;Silent Cal.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1689543[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
