7 he Neqv Sluer Coin

~ EW people know that there IL a
law in this country that the
design on all our silver coins
shall be changed every twenty-five
years. Just what the origin and
purpose OF this law is. is a matter of
speculation. However. it is still in
effect.
As consequence. b is now sew
gal months since the minis at Dem
yer. San Francisco and Philadelphia
began minting the new coins-half-
dollars. quarters and dimes--at the
rate of forty thousand dollars day
This would seem like a very large
amount of small change, but they
will have to keep at it <or some
little time in order to supply the
immense denand for small change
throughout the country
AS these new pieces are rut In
circulation. there will be a gradual
Withdrawing OF the old ones, which
will eventually be melted down and
reissued in the new form. So now
10 the time for the collector to put
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1917-01-10

away a few samples Of the ones that
are to-day in common use.
The new half dollars have the
Goddess Of Liberty holding
branch of olive with the familiar
legend. I'm God We Trust" on the
one side. The diverse side has the
eagle poised on rock, an oak twig
in its talons. The words, United
States of America" and Half Dol
lar" are on this side. as in the old
coins.
The quarters show more radical
changes. Here the eagle is in full
flight. What is described by one
who has not as yet seen them as
the figure of a woman coming
through q gate" is the head" of
the piece.
The dimes. also, will be absolutely
different from the ones we are now
familiar with. Liberty's head and
the date are the head While
the tail Is a bunch of rods and an
axe bound toeethcr-the faces"
borne by the old Roman lictors. Be
low this is the motto. "E Pluribus
Unum."
Those who have seen them de-
clare that they are by far the most
artistic pieces in silver that this
county has ever turned cut
