What I wish the Mint would do!

Enough quarters to choke a horse.

I wish someone would give serious thought to putting the National Parks on the obverse/reverse of the half with Theodore 'Teddy' Roosevelt on the other side. The larger size would allow for a bigger picture or even multiple pictures of the NPs and would finally get 'Teddy' on a coin where he belongs. His is the only 'mug' on Mt. Rushmore not to grace a circulating coin. Teddy was responsible for establishing our first NP at Yellowstone and was probably the first true environmentalist-politician.

This is not an original idea on my part, I can't recall where I first heard of it, but it makes perfect sense to me. If you agree, write or call your members of Congress, let's get the coin rolling.

Happy collecting all! Anyone heard from Clay recently?
