What happens after the State Quarter Program ends?

[MTHead-migration]

Back to the previous Washington/Eagle design?

 

A redesign?

 

Anybody know?

 

 

Seems like attempts to extend the Program and include U.S. Territories pass in the House

but die in the Senate; either ignored completely or failed to get enough votes to pass.

I thought that I had heard would go back to the original design. I may be wrong.

I've not heard anything to the contrary but haven't looked into it recently.

 

God, I hope it's the "pre-spaghetti hair" bust of Washington!

[MunkyMan95]

I'm hoping for a redesign. Washington would look cool with a head-on portrait like they did in 2006 for the Jefferson Nickel.

Fixed.

How about since the Bald Eagle's been saved we change the national bird to the Wild Turkey like Franklin wanted.

Ah, right

Yeah! A Wild Turkey would be great! Or, how about an Old Crow?

Wild turkeys belong on my dinner plate or in my shot glass, not on my coins.

The French have chickens...

 

[MunkyMan95]

We're not the French.

[pendragon1998]

We're not the French.

 

And I thank my lucky stars for that.

 

 

 

 

How about a Plains Indian sitting on a horse atop a small hill looking across the prairie at a herd of bison? That would be different.

I might like that, but I think the public might find it tacky. As sad as it is to say, this is not the naitve's land anymore. It's the white man's land. We tried to honor them on the Sacagawea dollar, and when is the last time you saw one of those in circulation anywhere besides the stamp machine at the post office?

Does this mean you haven't heard about the plan to put a new reverse on the back of the Sac every year?

I have, but they still won't circulate.

As a description it sounds kind of nice, but produce it on a coin one inch across and I think it loses a lot of its "punch".

The bison would look alot more like the mighty flea. Then again, people have alot more contact with fleas than eagles or bison, so maybe it is a good idea.

Best of both worlds----Turkey Vulture !

I think once they change a design their bound by law to change the design, of course there still putting the Washington in proof sets and mint sets so maybe that's there way out.
