New Nickels

This morning, while out getting our morning cup of joe, one of our Pooper staffers noticed something, another new design for the common nickel. Both new designs that have surfaced over the last two years are pictured on the left. As you can see the 2005 nickel shows a different profile of Jefferson than the nickels of our childhood. The 2006 nickel shows all of our third president's face. This is the beginning of a new trend in coin-making. The '06 nickel is part of a campaign entitled "Head,and Shoulders, Knees and Toes" where each year a new body part is featured. 2007 will be Jefferson's shoulders, 2008 his knees, 2009 his toes. This will likely continue. The Daily Pooper has heard from an anonymous source that there is a plan for a nickel in 2013 that will show Jefferson's butt.
Keep spending America.

And you know what's on the flipside of a butt coin, don't you?

2013 will be an easy year to teach coin identification to my Kindergarten class. Everyone will remeber the nickelbutt. By the way, will it be a clothed butt or a naked butt?
