    I would take out the slightly more than a hairline scratch on the shield of a green label 1918/17-S SLQ in PCGS MS63.

    264,000 of these would have been saved in this condition.

    I agree with Klectorkid, change it back to the Seated Liberty, the best design ever!

    I would get rid of this Clad Crap and make them out of Silver and Gold again.

    Suprisingly enough I would have kept Lincoln off the cent - the reason is rather simple. If Lincoln hadn't made it on the cent, we might not have had any of the other dead president coins either. All new designs issued since the Lincoln save the walker, the mercury dime, and the buffalo nickel are just plain ugly. (Washington quarter, Roosy dime, Jefferson nickel, Franklin half, Kennedy half, Ike dollar, SBA dollar, and Sacabuck).

  • Coopercoin's idea is very interesting about no presidential portrait coins but then I would lose all hope for my Reagan Half. Russ would be crushed without his precious JFK's and would be lost forever to the world of two-cent piece oblivion.

    As for changing just one thing on one coin... I would change my $10 Liberty Gold Piece into a $20 (you pick the mm/year and type, I am pretty open on this).

    Is that asking too much?

    my 1909-O dime would be in a PCGS holder labeled "absolute finest"...

    "bar none" would be nice to see on the holder...if they can squeeze it on...probably have to use a smaller font,though...

    i'm not greedy...this coin would only bring a million times face or so...that is, if it could be pried out of my cherry-pickin' hands...

  • Change the dollar coin to a bi-metallic comp. and ax the bill.
