    What are the odds that by 2028, we'll see an order from Trump to include his face on the $100. His reason will be that Franklin wasn't even popular enough to be President! SAD

    Hamilton was a perennial target of Republicans that wanted to put Reagan on the 10 for the same reason. The musical probably saved us from refacing the 10 for another two generations.

    Funny to think of a GOP enthralled by Reagan. Seems so quaint.

      If Trump is successful in this term, he'll be one of the most transformational presidents in American history.

      I wish him well.

          Heard an interesting counter argument, this proposal would require us to mint more nickels which apparently cost 13c each or something.

          Not sure how it all nets out or if cost really would be why you’d do this anyway, but it seems a valid consideration.

            Another reason to do this is it frees up cash register space to have a real dollar coin that people use.

            Though we may be far enough post-cash for that never to be important.

                    I mostly agree with this.

                      I’m somewhere between indifferent and fine with it.

                        The whole point of “it costs more to produce than its actual worth” is ridiculous.

                          Interesting take. I mean, if it really is about production costs.

                            Nickels are more expensive relating to value than any other coin or currency at $.14 per coin. Dimes cost around $.05, Quarters are around $.15, and bills cost between $.03-$.10. So obviously, we should just make the pennies equal $100 and reverse the denominations.

                            I repeat, this is so stupid.

                              So a future meme and movie trope may be "he's so poor he could only afford to burn penny bills"?
