Dead Famous Americans: Put 'em all on at once & be done with it!

Maybe the US Mint can do an obverse like this and get the "dead famous people" thing outta their system all at once, instead of another century of 'em on our coins?

Sure. Put the VP's on the reverse and the first ladies on a companion coin.

Exactly!

There is no way this is supposed to be the presidents. In addition to Babe Ruth and Mark Twain, I see Alexander Hamilton, Ben Franklin, Martin Luther King, Albert Einstein, Jack London, Robert E. Lee, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Meriweather Lewis, and George Plimpton.

Dunno...they all kinda look like Susan B. Anthony to me...

Who ever said those were all Presidents? His suggestion was to DO one like that with all the Presidents (and/or other famous dead guys) to get it out of our system once and for all.
