Yes. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   01-08-2009, 01:48 PM   #28 (permalink) Todd Volker Senior Member     Join Date: Jan 2009 Posts: 152 I agree with most of the above comments. I really wish I could develop some designs for the blighted dollar program! I especially dislike the (horribly) informal use of "$1" for One Dollar on the coin. This really helps give it a token-like look. . . . don't get me started about the bad looking lettering on the president series dollar coin! At the end of the day, I'm not down on the dollar coin. I want to see one be successful! It would be a useful denomination.   01-08-2009, 02:15 PM   #29 (permalink) GDJMSP Numismatist     Join Date: Nov 2002 Location: PA Posts: 23,503 Quote: Originally Posted by Todd Volker At the end of the day, I'm not down on the dollar coin.

They haven't had a successful $1 coin in the entire history of our nation. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   01-08-2009, 02:34 PM   #30 (permalink) Tane Junior Member     Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Russian Federation Posts: 19 My Mood: I actually like it I had to buy one from eBay just a few minutes ago because it is quite nice - finally a good looking American coin without those eagles and other stuff like that. Only thing I want to complain about is the obverse, which looks very out of balance now without the date and mint mark. __________________   Page 2 of 4 < 1 2 3 4 > Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
