They proposed the $10 FRN not the $20. I voted for "other".

I saw the McConnell effort, but not the Rohrabacher effort. There will be many other
comments/efforts to rename/replace. if they don't do the Presidential series, then I say put Ronnie on the GD ASAP. -Fred Shecter http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...shreadv ector -- """Remove "zorch" from address (2 places) to reply.

I found the results surprising - unless people from this group are the only ones voting ! On what currency should Ronald Reagan's image be placed: Dime - 7% $10 Bill - 24% $20 Bill - 10% Other - 5% None - 54% Well the numbers have been getting higher since this morning. I still do not believe that there are 54% that does not want to see his face on the money though, unless it is people that is going by what Nancy had to say about it. Not even on this newsgroup! But I guess that they (the 54%) have been listening to JAM & a few others from this newsgroup... As in "No more dead presidents on any of our money would be refreshing.". ======= Roscoe. |

: if they don't do the Presidential series, then I say put Ronnie on the GD ASAP. Neat idea, however I'm about to make a post that would make better (at least to me) use of Regan's image. My fear about putting Regan's image on the dollar would be like what happened to the half dollar when a certain president's image who was shot to death was put on that coin. Death to the half dollar as no one wanted to spend it as the image was too valuable to depart or acually use. Many things are different today, still it makes me think what could happen, Barney |
