cool i guess. i just wish we could just stick to presidents and states. before long we will be like allot of the rest of the countries i have been to, funny colored money and things that have nothing to do with our country plastered all over it.

And like all previous failed dollar coin designs it will retain every single design flaw of the Susan B. Anthony. Why won't the mint wise up & make a ueable $1 coin?? Because they found out that designing unseable coins they create a collector market that removes money from the market thereby removing currency from the market & artificially inflating the dollar's value.
