See if the link above works. It leads you to the press release from Senator John Sununu (who also graduated from MIT). -Fred Shecter http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQ...shreadv ector |

"upon termination of the program, all $1 coins will revert to the Sacagawea design". When first I read that, I imagined ten years worth of presidential portraits magically morphing into Sacagawea. Better get them slabbed before the design changes or else you'll never know what they were. (I can see it now: eBay sellers offering complete "former presidential" sets using ordinary Sacagawea dollars - and not the magically revereted designs) -- Jim Seymour |

I read the bill thoroughly. It didn't say anything about keeping - nor about getting rid of - the $1 bill. This will only work if that is done. The $1 bill has served its time and now it's time for it to go. Carleton |

Correct. Nothing in the bill that specifically orders the end of the FBI-RD.
It does call for reports on obstacles to the circulation of the dollar coins and it calls for dollar coin use in all Federal Government facilities and for placarding of vending machines so folks know they work in them. Obviously one obstacle is the continued printing of the FBI-RD. The bank teller who talked to me never said it was in the legislation. He said that the Federal Reserve or Treasury folks who gave the banking folks the breifing stated it as a done deal - a done deal with a long timetable. We'll see how much support the flood of Presidential GDs generates for the elimination of the FBI-RD. The first one will have GW on it. -- -Fred Shecter remove zorch two places to reply Current eBay auctions: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQgotopage...sortpropertyZ1 "Carleton" wrote in message oups.com...

Upper or lower level?
That's what I think of when I hear GWB. Guess where I grew up. -- -Fred Shecter remove zorch two places to reply Current eBay auctions: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQgotopage...sortpropertyZ1 "PC" wrote in message ...
