In reply to the discussion: New coins to commemorate 250th anniversary of American independence. Here's how they'll look [View all]jgmiller
(665 posts)49. The pilgram one shown above is pathetic but
I looked at the other designs and while I hate that they changed them because of the facist attempt to rewrite history most of them aren't bad. The dime is particularly good, it's a modern version of the liberty cap design that was on a lot of US coinage in the last 18th and early 19th century. I think it's interesting they chose to remove two of the most popular DEMCORATIC presidents of the 20th century though, FDR and JFK. Their pettiness knows no bounds.

I'll put my trust where I want, not where someone says I should. It's a coin not a holy object.

That's a stupid looking idea for a coin and not even close to historical accurate.

If it does, I expect the ones I see to be accidentally defaced before being returned to circulation. nt
