Why not a Vietnam war commemorative coin?

Just too political with bad memories?

There is the memorial in Washington D.C. of course but why not a coin as well? I guess you need some kind of fund raising for
a good cause connection with it, maybe to help victims of agent orange?

  • Um..... never mind, I see that they did issue something back in 1994.


    The govt. has issued so many commemorative coins in recent years I just lose track of it all.

    There was a POW commem silver dollar issued in 1994 to help raise money for the POW Museum. Maybe someone can post a pic.

    Michigan, why not change the title of the thread from

    << <i>Why not a Vietnam war commemorative coin? >>

    to "post your Vietnam or other military commem coins"?
