Could you tell me which President's image appears on every coin in circulation? Is it the same President on all denominations, or does it vary? I'm curious to know if there's a specific reason behind the choice of this President, and if there have been any changes in the past regarding the depiction of Presidents on our currency. Additionally, are there any plans for future changes or updates to the coin designs?
