As I understand it, the new obverse is supposed to continue on indefinitely.   11-18-2006, 10:53 AM   #4 (permalink) crispy1995 Spending Toms like crazy**     Join Date: Jul 2005 Location: Dutchess County, NY Posts: 509 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by Check_M_All Kendo is correct.

I am also really dislike how little relief the nickels (I guess all coins in general now) have. It can't take more than a couple of years for the design to be worn smooth... They sure don't make 'em like they used to!   11-18-2006, 01:20 PM   #6 (permalink) sanskrit Junior Member   Join Date: Sep 2006 Posts: 16 Is it just me, or does Jefferson look a bit like Frankenstein?   11-28-2006, 04:27 PM   #7 (permalink) PEdoubleNIZZLE Member     Join Date: Apr 2004 Location: McKeesport, PA (10 miles SE of Pittsburgh) Posts: 45 I like new coin designs, but I'm not too sure I'm gonna like "Frankenstein" Jefferson. It looks too cartoony for me. Just like I don't care too much for state quarters, because it reminds me of a token. I'm just afraid to see how they're gonna butcher the cent in 2009.   11-28-2006, 04:30 PM   #8 (permalink) Treashunt The Other Frank     Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: New York Posts: 17,724 Hey what is wrong with a token? They only have a token value at the store.   11-28-2006, 08:19 PM   #9 (permalink) Dockwalliper Coin Hoarder     Join Date: Oct 2003 Location: Tonawanda, New York Posts: 986 Quote: Originally Posted by der_meister77 I agree with you crispy!

It'l take more than a few years, I have yet to get a 2006 nickel in circulation. __________________ BNA #539   11-28-2006, 09:57 PM   #10 (permalink) cladking Coin Collector   Join Date: Sep 2002 Posts: 1,442 My Mood: If they're made the entire year then they could contain an average of eight cents worth of metal or so. They might throw in the towel at any time. __________________ Tempus fugit   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk? Coin Talk Code of Honor 1.
