I agree, FDR was essential to our country during WW II; however, Reagan almost single-handedly won the Cold War, WITHOUT the nuclear holocaust that the left predicted. He deserves something.

well you know he has alot.. DC airport named after him, Reagan building in DC, aircraft carrier.....he has not gone unnoticed with many towns and cities now following suit, but it would be nice to have some everyday thing in his likeness

FDR has the dime, several stamps, a DC memorial, countless schools, streets, buildings, a ship, and etc. I'm not saying we should "strip" any of FDR's "honors," I just think Reagan deserves something. The US has never really "warmed up" to a one dollar coin, but I think they would with Reagan. The Canadians have found that dollar coins save their treasury a lot of money because coins last so much longer than frequently used paper bills.

Put him on a dollar coin, and it will finally circulate.
We have a winner!

Thanks.
Somehow I don't think I'll be able to find any up here in Canada.

A dollar coin is a great idea, but it will not circulate. Everyone will just keep them as mementos. I know I would

The article noted Reagan's humor was "self-depreciating". The term is self-deprecating. Writers should not use the words if they don't know them.
To: Veloxherc
A one hundred dollar gold piece would be more appropriate and they would circulate
