Subject: New Nickels, any opinions?
Written By: MooRocca on 05/26/04 at 1:26 pm
Just saw the new Louisiana Purchase nickels, wondering if anyone else has seen them and is less than enthused. It's bad enough that it's a year late for the 200th anniversary, but unless they're trying to symbolize something other than the purchase agreement, they actually managed to get the participants wrong. :-[

I agree.
Leave the money alone. Its ironic that it costs money to change the money we already had and used in the first place.

The first time I saw one, I thought, "How did a video arcade token wind up in my pocket???"

I had no clue they were even changing until the tooth fairy brought one for my daughter. I don't like them.

Couldn't agree more. Why, if I had a nickel for every time they... on second thought, scratch that. ;D

They're now minted a new Buffalo Nickel. It's not the same as the oldie. Unfortunately they're going to return the Monticello reverse. That took creativity >:(

Thanks Jiminy :) The bison's d*ck is actually controversial. Maybe they'll be a "No Wiener" variety ;D
