I have to agree with Condor on this. The mint lawyers are sticklers for following the letter of the law (ie. 2008 sackies) They may come under pressure to change but right now they don't plan on going out of order and minting a Reagan dollar.

to stop at who? carter? he was a president? heehee, to terminate the program because some tree hugger is still alive and to not honour the greatest president of the 20th century would be a travesty. I think I will move him up in my cd pool, right next to obl.

If you skip Carter you are issuing them out of order.
Not necessarily, if Carter was never issued (i.e. he outlives the run)!

But you are right, the law is open to interpretation. I am sure this is going to be an partisan issue in the future!

When the time comes, I am willing to wager that the law will be amended in some way to make it clear to issue a Reagan coin if Carter were to be skipped.

Mudpuppy..........
Glad to hear your opinion of Mr. Ronald Wilson Reagan....the father of the Modern Republican Conservative Party! This man was a god-like hero to me!...... remember how Al Gore tried to "mimick" him!..before one particular debate, he watched the videos of Reagans mannerism's and EVEN HAD HIS HAIR STYLED LIKE REAGANS !...too funny!.....(once he got "busted" on this obvious attempt to "capture Reagans essence" ..he quickly changed that and stopped,... realizing (probably pointed out from an aide and of course the press) that he was just appearing rediculous!)

And I agree... one of the greatest in the 20th Century and a "top ten" of all time too maybe. It's too bad there's not room for him on Mount Rushmore.......an airport and a bronze medal...just is not enough for his legacy ! ....Can you imagine how a President could be "that" popular.........to win 49 out of 50 states ?.....THAT'S AN INCREDIBLE FEAT ! ........Even with the Liberal dominated media at the time in newspapers and t.v..........we're so divided as a nation now with "partisan politics" and "hate" and "mistrust".......etc. etc. etc.etc.etc..........THERE IS NO WAY "THAT" FEAT WILL "EVER" BE DONE AGAIN !
And yup ......even as popular as Barack Hussein Obama seems to be.......trust me......HE AINT GONNA WIN 49 OUT OF 50 STATES LIKE REAGAN DID!
Nowadays....of course...the "anti" crowd want to re-write the memory and popularity of him and diminish it as much as possible, because after all he was one of those hated Republicans you know.......

and p.s.
The only state Reagan didn't win ....WAS HIS OPPONETS...(Minnesotta/Mondale)

Just like Conder pointed out, the schedule ends with Gerald Ford. It could be that the Mint is covering their backside or they have gotten counsel on situation.

IMHO, even if my interpretation of the legislation is correct, I think it would be inappropriate to list Reagan now not knowing the fate of Carter.

We probably won't know until it happens, but I am quite sure legislation will be passed to keep it going for all of the Presidents, long after the current run terminates.

What is rather morbid is that the Dansco albums appear to run all the way through G.W. Bush!
