What denomination would it be and how would it look?
For me, I'd make a new 5c nickel with the Eagle's head on the Obverse and the tail on the back...
Just one idea I had..Curious to hear some of yours..

Interesting idea. I like it.

I actually would love to see a new walking liberty design on the half dollar!

Current coinage laws might prohibit an eagle on the nickel denomination.

Should I acquire some rollers as an inflation hedge?

Should I acquire some rollers as an inflation hedge?
When I had these for sale, they were initially $25 for an ICG-certified MS/PR 69 example.
So that would be $12.50 per "Roller". The last few that were sold on eBay (not by me)
went for $80+. So that is $40.00 per "Roller". Is the Dollar going down or is the Roller
going up ?

Actually they do, but maybe not for the reason most might think. There is no prohibition on minor coinage bearing an eagle, but current coinage law requires Jefferson on the obverse and Monticello on the reverse. (This was enacted just a few years ago. I am not speaking of the original legislation for the design.) A group from VA wanted to make sure that Jefferson remains on the 5¢ piece in perpetuity, but here's what they missed:
while it is true that in order for Jefferson and Monticello to be removed from the 5¢ piece, it would require congressional legislation. Oddly, that is the typical path any time we change a design, so in effect the law is nothing more than a prohibition on the Secretary of the Treasury to change it on his own.
