Dockwalliper Posted August 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 I think we really need to do the every living American series like Mad Magazine proposed back in the 1970's. Or the US county cent series that "The Onion" reported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishmoney Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Or the US county cent series that "The Onion" reported. I could care less for the First Lady coins, but it would be a lot more interesting if they did a coin series commemorating the First "Other Woman" that quite a few of the Presidents had at one time or another. Think Harding, Kennedy, Clinton, Bush(whoops the secret is out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreasureGirl Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 That is all well and good but I think Congress might get yelled at when they get to Jefferson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NumisMattic2200 Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Well now that the Scottish PM rules Britannia, you can count on many changes. To be rid of Tony Blair I wouldn't care if he were an ex-IRA man.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottishmoney Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 I had clotted creme while back on a roll, but somehow the name of the concoction just sends shivers of clotted arteries. Now Pasties on the other hand, those do sound quite fair for the feast this nacht. BTW those tractors should be pulling long carriages, they will take the place of the double deckers. All lorries will be pulled by oxen ta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishmoney Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 BTW, why Cornish, me says whay nay? The ones out in west country have history of pillaging shipwrecks etc off of the rocks, so they are more than qualified for pillaging the government at Westminster.

Dockwalliper Posted September 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 Looks like the House & Senate passed the House version so we keep the Sacagawea. The bill also reduces the mintage from 33% of all dollar coins to 20%. We also get...... In General- In order to remove barriers to circulation, the Secretary of the Treasury shall carry out an aggressive, cost-effective, continuing campaign to encourage commercial enterprises to accept and dispense $1 coins that have as designs on the obverse the so-called `Sacagawea design'.

Nice to know with more pressing matters including the economy that this is such an important matter to the US Congress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
