I thought this would happen now that they're minted only for collectors. With the mint selling these dollars at a premium and as a collectible product I don't consider them a coin anymore. It's more like a medallion made by the US government.
The
Presidential dollar coins were a complete fluke and a waste of time and money. However, I see a need for making dollar coins and the
Native American dollars work nicely. I only wish they would return the dates and mintmarks on the obverse of the coin.
And I agree with doing away with the dollar banknote but I hope that doesn't start another wave of fear and paranoia by some people crying tyranny, being "forced", being "shoved around" by Big Brother, "sheeple", etc.
