From the Christian Post:
The governor of Oklahoma, Brad Henry, had received a number of complaints from state residents, but noted that the decision was not made locally. It was only after the design ideas had been shipped to the U.S. mint that the historic book was removed.
According to the mint guidelines, the manufacturer cannot place “inappropriate” designs onto the backside of its currency. These include logos or depictions of things whose membership is not universal such as education, sports, commercial, and religious.
Guess they didn't have the guts to take off that "In God We Trust" part...yet.
