The dime was last changed in 1946 , to apear as it does today.
Previous to then it was the famous liberty dime. With the change of the Quarters and the paper money changes , perhaps the dime could use an upgrade. However I dont think Roosevelt should be removed for the likeness of Reagan.

Heres what I mean...

Some of the people and images that have graced the American coinage:

Abraham Lincoln ,Thomas Jefferson , Native Americans , Countless variations of Lady Liberty , Franklin Roosevelt , George Washington , The Actual 50 States , Benjamin Franklin , John Kennedy , The Bald Eagle , Dwight Eisenhower , Susan B. Anthony , and Sacagawea.

Perhaps its just me but I dont think Reagan belongs to that list.

Eh the us has to change everything now, what with the pledge of allegance and all that crap. It doesn't really matter to me what they do, I just wish they could make up their minds once in a while. oOo:

For this purpose, I see Bwolf's point.
