<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 270189, member: 66&quot;]So far all that has been done is the house has passed an amendment that forbids the mint from spending money on making dollar coins with edge inscriptions.&nbsp; The Senate hasn&#039;t done anything with that amendment.&nbsp; If they do pass it it doesn&#039;t remove the inscriptions from the edge, it just stops the mint from making them.&nbsp; So the coins will be authorized, but their production forbidden.&nbsp; No more President dollars until they get the laws fixed.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Senate also has a bill that puts the inscriptions ON the edge of the Sac dollar, and changes the reverse design each year.&nbsp; If that bill becomes law and that amendment is passed then they will also be both authorized and their production forbidden as well.&nbsp; (The Senate bill hasn&#039;t moved since it was referred to committee back in February though.)</p><p><br /></p><p>If they do manage to correct the amendment to remove the inscriptions from the edge, but they don&#039;t specify where they are to appear on the coin, then they will be removed completely because their is no legislation to require them to be on the coin.&nbsp; (There are laws that do require them on the coins, but the dollar legislation specificly exempts the dollar coins from those laws.)&nbsp; So if they take them off and don&#039;t specify where they are to appear, that means no IGWT, no E Pluribus Unum, no DATE, and no mintmark.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
