carmykle Pillar of the Community United States 2448 Posts	Posted 01/11/2015 9:35 pm OMG, I've long forgotten about the missing 18 minutes. I am looking forward to the coin though. I'll hand them out to friends that tell tales. Report this Post to the Staff

I'm sure there are some southern boys to this day that have some choice words for the guy on the penny and $5. I don't care much for the guy on the dime, but I'm not gonna call him names in the middle of a fun discussion about coins. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 187671 Posts	Posted 01/12/2015 5:05 pm Yes, we need to keep this focused on the coins and not our political opinions towards those who are on the coins. Although, it goes without saying that Liberty would be the perfect solution to ease objections of detractors. Am I right?
