Well written article Jeremy-

You can't be 17. Were you born on Feb 29th and it is 17 birthdays?

Jeremy

Congrats on your editorial. Just wish I could read it. Apparently it takes longer for the mail to get to Georgia. I look forward to receiving my copy.

I admire any man, or woman, of words ...

Jeremy-

Well done young man! Most impressive. Read your world history and the paralell between coinage and the state of affairs in any given modern society. As a youngster you may find it very interesting that in many societies in the past recordable history as modern heralded leaders appeared on coinage it signaled the deterioration of that society. On a lighter note......I guess we know the USA is doomed when we see Bill Clinton on the obverse of a coin and Monica on the reverse. I guess that series would be called Modern Presidents and their squeezes......

It's an eloquent bashing of the presidential dollars--April 12, 2004 issue.

I don't have that issue yet, but I must congratulate you. Bring LIBERTY back! No more presidents! Can't wait to read it. Thanks.

I'll be getting my copy in the mail sometime next month. I never get Coin World on time. I'm looking forward to reading it.

I want to get the Coin World Issue... but my local Barnes and Nobles doesn't carry Coin World... and I'd have to go accross town to go to Books-A-Million...

Stork

I'd love to read it, but I am not likely to find that here. Will it ever be on-line, or could I get someone to send me a copy?

Jeremy, that is just fantastic.

I haven't gotten a chance to read it, but I will make sure that I get a CoinWorld and do that.

Jeremy,

Excellent work, Congratulations!

LAWMAN

jeremy, I have food in my refrigerator which is older than you, but it hasn't written any articles in Coin World!

XpipedreamR

Excellent!


You should print your commentary here for those too cheap or lazy to go out and get CW

Cool... it's hanging in my English classroom now

Jeremy:

That was an excellently written, logically reasoned article. I was truly taken with the writing. Too many bright youngsters your age try to impress people by using large words and awkward phrasing in a misguided effort to appear intellectural. Your writing was at a high level but was totally natural. VERY well done.

Next year you should apply to the University of Florida and bag all other colleges! (smile)

Jeremy congratulations on a very well written editorial.

I agree with most of your comments, and agree that the idea of a Presidential dollar series is a terrible one.

ksteelheader

Well written article. I also don't want to see a Presidential dollar series. I also don't want to see the same things that have been on our coins before put back on them either. It's ancient history, and doesn't need to be brought back. Lets move on and put new things on our coinage...

The April 12, 2004 issue? That is exactly 59 years to the day that FDR died.

I haven't seen it yet Jeremy, but I know that it will be worth reading

mnmcoin

Congrats Jeremy, I knew they would put it in.

Congratulations, Jeremy!!! I haven't seen it yet, but hopefully someone will kindly post a copy here.

shylock

Congrats Jeremy, that's a really well written and thought out commentary that defies your age!

I think that people who can write and speak in an

intelligent and coherent manner, ..................have no place on this Forum.

GaCoinGuy

I read the article......very well written and very nicely worded.

Just picked up a copy of the April 12, 2004 edition of Coin World, and read your commentary first thing, Jeremy. Excellent article and I couldn't agree more, especially about the 1st Spouses gold commemoratives.
