  1. As a long time coin collector (1960’s), I’ve seen a lot of gimmicks from the mint trying to stimulate the coin market.  When I first started the only mint issues were the proof and uncirculated sets.  Today we are seeing so many different coins issued from the mint that the average collector rarely has the budget to keep up.  One area that I feel could give a big push to the coin market and draw in new collectors would be to re-introduce the “classic coinage”.  Every year the mint could showcase a coin from America’s history and replace one of the Presidents with a previous classic. Imagine having a 2020 Standing Liberty Quarter show up in your coinage! Sure, it most likely would be clad, but imagine the interest it would spark!
