I had mentioned a while back that I was going to list a Registry Set on African Americans on U.S. Coins.
I listed what I had and to my way of thinking I need 3 more to finish the set.
The Jackie Robinson in MS
The Black Patriots in MS
The Little Rock in MS.
Not planning on including the gold Jackie Robinson $5 coin.

Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.

I can do a set on famous golfers on coins. Lets see, there's Eisenhower, there's.....Eisenhower....and there's, um, Eisenhower. Hey this will be my first complete set.
Well, just Love coins, period.

Caeser Rodney wasn't black.

GWB knocked balls around, and so did Bill Clinton, but I cannot say they approached the game with the same fervor that Ike did.

Gerald Ford comes to mind, he is eligible (deceased) unlike GWB and Clinton, but I don't know of any plans to put him on a coin.

He's considered the first African-American on a circulating US coin.
The obverse design depicts "Three Faces of Diversity," representing the three cultures that came together at Jamestown - American Indian, European and African.
