[QUOTE="Mr. Flute, post: 2368668, member: 33154"]I disagree. The 5 and 25 cent obverses are almost completely different, except for the person represented. The 5 cent obv changed in 2006 and the 25 cent obv in 1999. But I agree that people do have a fair amount of disdain for our moderns, but only the dime and half are completely unchanged for an extended period. As for proof sets, the silver proof sets are my go to birthday/xmas list suggestions for family. I typically don't buy them myself, but am happy to accept one as a gift. I'd actually like to see a complete up ending of the denoms. to get rid of the 1 & 5 cent coins, start actually using the 1 dollar coin, create and use a 2 and 5 dollar coin and finally resize and use the 10, 25 and 50 cent coins to be more useful. Also, get rid of the 1, 2 and 5 dollar bills.[/QUOTE]
