I agree with you but am not impressed with the fact that we have another Army / Military commemorative coin being issued - so close to this year's ARMY & MOH commems. [ Both of which were more than worthy of commeration ]
A WW-I Doughboy isn't exactly what I think we should be issuing at this point. Possibly we could have issued such a coin on the 100th anniversary of our involvement in WW-I; it would make far greater sense.
Last week, I watched a session of the House of Representatives, and they were introducing a bill for another commemorative coin, the Cooperstown Baseball Hall of Fame. I hope this passes and sells extremely well to help fund such a great institution .
Be that as it may, the Doughboy coin is scheduled - and I am embarrassed to say, that today is the first I have heard about this coin. I really should read Coin World more often - and in print - as I just skim over it if I read it on line.
edited to say that my POS lap top posted only 1/20th of what I had intended to say.
