JFK 1964

They didn't waste any time putting him on the half dollar and his name on evreything from Cape Kennedy (Canaveral) to uncounted schools, libraries, etc.

They changed the Cape back to Canaveral without any fanfare at some point.

If they want to put the $10,000 bill back into circulation Reagan could replace Salmon P. Chase who, when he was Sec of Treasury, more or less put himself on the bill to promote his political career.
