I dont know about everybody else but im tired of presidents heads on coins. Remember when coins were a work of art? They had Liberty, Eagles, American Indians, Buffaloes and etc. Go back to designs that are native to the country, like maybe a white tailed deer, or a largemouth bass, an owl, bobcat, something differant. Even if its not made of silver at least its something nice to look at. No disrepect to the guys of the oval office but we need a major change. A sheild, the moon, a mountain, a river scene, ANYTHING. Whats your thoughts? Thanks

How about state seals kinda like they did with quarters?
 

Bring back the Standing Liberty Quarter, the Walking Liberty Half and the St Gaudens design as a dollar coin. :D
 

What ticks me off too is they waste a good design on a bullion coin. For instance the Buffalo gold $50 coin, use this design in circulating coins, not something the mint can rape us for hundreds of dollars. Same as the Walking Liberty silver eagle another waste of a good design. Can you imagine if they made a Walking Liberty half dollar again! I bet that coin would circulate, even if it was clad.
