The best tribute to Reagan would be to put his visage on a gold coin, not this fiat crap.

Put Reagan on a dollar coin, same size as the silver dollar.

"The best tribute to Reagan would be to put his visage on a gold coin, not this fiat crap."

Actually, a very good idea. Sales of such a coin, which wouldn't actually be circulated, could generate a lot of money for the treasury, as well as letting people keep a tangible, and valuable, memento of Reagan's presidency.

Make the coin legal tender, but at a value that would keep the coin from actually circulating in the economy. Interesting idea.

That's what I and tet68 said on another thread yesterday. Personally I favor a hundred dollar gold piece.

Dump Old Hickory or US Grant. Grant's probably the best choice actually.



Best suggestion I've seen yet. Put Reagan on the Gold Eagle
