>> Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., a speechwriter in the Reagan White House, plans to introduce a bill to put Reagan on the $20 bill, replacing another venerable Democrat, Andrew Jackson.
Rep. Mark Souder, R-Ind., to provide for dimes bearing the likeness of Reagan.
Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said he would pursue an idea he has pushed for several years, placing Reagan on the $10 bill now bearing the visage of Hamilton, the first Treasury secretary.
How about coming out with a new denomination the 40 dollar bill for The 40th president he can grace that bill I've been pushing for a $40 bill for our 40th president, for several months here; hasn't caught fire yet <<

I'd say a higher denomination is appropiate, like $50 or $100. I always thought Teddy Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan should grace those two bills.

U.S. Grant was a great general but a terrible President, I don't know why he got on the $50. And Benjamin Franklin was much better suited the 50 cent piece, but unfortunately they tossed him and put JFK on. Andy Jackson was one of the few decent Democrats we had as president. Keep 'em on the $20. Alexander Hamilton was very much in sych with Reagan's policies, I don't think he should be on the $10 but I'd like to see him on some other currency. And I'm all for throwing FDR off the dime, but I think non-Presidentials greats should grace coinage. Besides, nobody can tell who it is in on those tiny coins. Here's my suggested change:

$10,000 - Wilson (nobody see it or use it! heh heh)
$5,000 - FDR (nobody see it or use it! heh heh)
$1,000 - Cleveland
$500 - McKinley
$100 - Reagan
$50 - Teddy Roosevelt
$20 - Jackson
$10 - Truman
$5 - Lincoln
$2 - Jefferson
$1 - Washington
