You guys will probably just make negative remarks about this thread,
but this is something that came to me, especially with Christmas
coming soon.

If the U.S. ever does a bimetallic $2 coin with a siver ring around a
golden center, like Canada, then later, if the U.S., Canada, or both,
do a bimetallic $5 coin with a golden ring around a silver middle (as
Canada proposed a new $5 coin to be if they scrap their $5 bills) the
nick name for the new $5 coin, since its worth $5 and has a golden
ring around a silver center, the new $5 coin could be called a "Five
Golden Rings" even though there would only be a single golden ring on
the proposed coin, and not five rings. (-;

I just thought that the $5 denomination, and the golden ring around
the silver center on the coin seemed to line up pretty well for this
nick name.
