POLL: Presidential Dollars

MrEureka

I just saw that the date of the coins will appear on the edge. I would have never guessed that.

Barndog

ever since the initial news about this series, I've not read anything about the coins due to my extreme level of disinterest, so I will say NO to the poll.

I'm really interested in seeing if these will circulate. Recently I bought some stamps from a vending machine at the Post Office and I got bright & shiney 2001 Sacs in change. Never seen 2001's before, let alone shiney ones. Does this mean the banks are running out of 2000's? Was there a run on 2000's because of the Cheerios Sackies?

Anyway, I just love to pay for stuff with shiney Sackies. You always get the cashier looking at them as if they can't decide if they got valuable treasure or not.

I think I will like them if they have a cool finish, maybe dull and smooth...

They always look at me like I'm trying to give them funny money...

Wait...

Never mind, I am.

I followed the bill as it changed over the last 2 years and the incuse edge lettering was there from the start.

So, yes.

I would never have known that. COOL

I am still a little weirded out by the omission of the word "liberty."

Yeah, me too. Maybe they could use "SECURITY."

sumnom

They kept "In God We Trust" but the omitted "liberty." I know they say that having the Statue of Liberty is enough to convey the concept but I still don't like it.

To quote Homer Simpson, "it's funny because it's true."

Yes, one of the first things I noticed when the mint put up images of them on their site!

Sure I knew. It was included in the legislation that was discussed and voted on and passed over a year ago.

One of the few numismatic items I heard on the radio.
