<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1605143, member: 66&quot;]In 2006 the mint conducted surveys judging the collectors point of view on the Proposed Presidential dollar series.&nbsp; One of the options was to offer a silver proof version of the coin and this met with great approval in the survey.&nbsp; The possibility of the silver proof was discussed by collectors and the mint and it was apparently going to be a slam dunk.&nbsp; Well the deadline for changes to the 2008 Redbook passed before the mint announced whether there would be a silver version the editor, on the strength of the survey results and public demand, assumed that the Mint would put out a silver version and included it in the Redbook.&nbsp; What they all seemed to have forgotten was that the authorizing legislation did not authorize a silver version and the Mint apparently thought they would have too much trouble getting the legislation amended.</p><p><br /></p><p>The dollar legislation requires that at the end of the President dollar program all of the dollars revert to the Sacagawea design.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
