[QUOTE="yakpoo, post: 845869, member: 18157"]Actually, it's neither of those two options...it's whether or not a president is eligible to be honored before the program ends. The program can be later reenacted, but only by an Act of Congress. As I read [URL="http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/search/display.html?terms=quarter%20dollar&url=/uscode/html/uscode31/usc_sec_31_00005112----000-.html"]Title 31, 5112[/URL](n) "Redesign and Issuance of Circulating $1 Coins Honoring Each of the Presidents of the United States"... A president has to be deceased at least two (2) years when their turn comes up. The program ends when all eligible Presidents are so honored. You have to jump around the code a bit to get all the details... In other words, if Jimmy E. or George H. W. kick it in the next four (4) years, they (and their Spouse...living or dead) would get a coin. Unless we start going through Presidents at a rate of four (4) per year, the program will eventually end. [B]EDIT:[/B] Here's a thought...if Bill Jeff has a massive coronary in the next couple of years...and Hillary somehow becomes President, she could get a Spouse coin, but not a President coin...interesting. I wonder if Bill Jeff would get a Spouse coin once Hillary dies...assuming they renew the program at some later date...he probably should. It's anyone's guess what the artist would have him doing in the Oval Office! Kiss[/QUOTE]
