When will it be the Dime's turn?

SBA dollars, Sac dollars, Presidential dollars, state quarters, updated portraits of Jefferson and Washington, four new Lincoln reverses next year,
with all the "change" going on since 1999 in our nation's coinage, when will the Rosie Dime finally get a makeover?

Remember, even the Kennedy half had a Bicentennial design if you want to go back further. Nothing, nada for the dime since 1946.

So, let's hear some thoughts and guesses on when the Mint will change the design of the dime.

My personal guess is the lack of design change will become apparent to the Mint and they'll use the 75th anniversary of Roosevelt's death as a reason (2020).

    2020 sounds reasonable to me.

    Had a chance, Mrs. Reagan ask that it not be done (Ronnie was the intended update to the dime).

    I kinda feel her sentiment was in the right place, and agree that we should not be putting real people (dead or otherwise) on our coins.
    Put Miss Liberty on the dime and make everyone but a politition smile.
