Ideas About Future Commemoratives?

MFRY.........
Yeah.....it will not be visible to you, on your screen, until you have a Moderator "turn it on" for you.......then it will be there as all of the others are......."Classic....Modern....Main......and scroll down to "General Discussion".
Shoot Bryan1315 (moderator) an email and request him to make it available to ya.
It isn't in those first few heading topics like "Family Topics" or "Introduce yourself"........once "turned on", it'll be above "World Coins", somewhere around the middle of the page on the CCF Home Page.
In there you can discuss music, westerns, movies, post pics of a cool sunset, trips you've taken........start topics on ANYTHING you want to....
Let me know if you still have a problem getting to it, but first email any moderator and they'll get ya hooked up......your screen will look exactly the same, except "General Discussion" will be added as one more heading/subject option for you.

Eaglefoot - I still couldn't find the right forum for your posts. Guess I'm just a blind man in this website. Can you lead me to it a little better. I'm not too stupid, just can't find my way around.

found it, Eaglefoot and left some messages there. Thanks for your help! Thought I'd never find it. Now, to find out how to post pictures without going to links!

This topic is a ghost town, isn't it? No one comes here anymore.

Glad to hear that. I think a nice future commemorative would honor those men and women who served in this current conflict we're in in Iraq & Afghanistan. Perhaps a coin for the 1st Gulf War also. Some of these conflicts get forgotten over time, but the brave men and women who served, and some who lost life or limb, will never forget - nor their families.

Sequoyah is one who should be so honored, with his Cherokee Alphabet. Great war chiefs should be also, like Sitting Bull, Geronimo. Maybe have a series of coins with the different styles of arrowheads or different tepee designs of different tribes. They probably have different war shields and such. Those could be beautiful and collectable. On each tribal cent perhaps you could write "In God We Trust" in that Native American language. Perhaps you could make them all a red or a dark bronze color, or even different colors. You could put a dream catcher on one, or the Sundance re-creation on one; the sweatlodge, the 4 directions, certain dances. The possibilities are endless with Native American coins.

Since I live in Topeka, home of "Brown vs. Board of Education" which was a key starting point in the civil rights movement, I'd strongly support a coin commemorating the one American who probably did the most to change modern American history, but who has never had a coin issued in his honor: Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

For those that like round numbers, next year he would have been 80 years old. They should surely have one in 2029 if the were going to have one at all.
