[QUOTE="justforthis06, post: 343242, member: 3224"]As most of you probably know, there are going to be some changes in 2010. The Quarter will change and be done with the State and Territorial series, and the cent will have had its Lincoln Bicentennial. So we will see a new quarter and cent. It got me thinking though...Its a new decade. Lets make it big! Each year can have its own theme, with all demoninations participating.

I just think it would be something special the mint could do to spice things up. I dont think it would be too much, because there would only be 1 of each coin made (excepting the Pres.
