If you think about this then a continuation would be to show the capitol building fully rebuilt for 2010 design. I wouldnt be shocked if its the capitol building in full glory. That was how the Capitol Building looked when Abe was in office. It wasn't finished yet. __________________ Two silk worms had a race.

I personally like the shield design myself.   11-06-2009, 04:01 PM   #5 (permalink) pappy-o coinoisseur     Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: SoCal Posts: 767 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by justndav76 yeah I screwed that one up.

Had the British not destroyed the original structure, it might have been completed by 1860.   11-07-2009, 04:06 PM   #7 (permalink) justndav76 Member     Join Date: Feb 2009 Location: Davenport, Iowa Posts: 147 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by andrew289 Technically, Co-Op, Justndave was correct.

I remember the British doing a number on DC in the war of 1812 and I thought the Capitol building was one of them. Then it was under reconstruction for quite some time thereafter. Whew glad I still actually remember my history after all. I seriously think its going to be some design of the finished Capitol building.   11-07-2009, 04:20 PM   #8 (permalink) charlienorth Junior Member     Join Date: Sep 2009 Location: Madison, WI USA Posts: 26 My Mood: (get to 10 posts drivel) :-)   11-05-2009, 08:59 PM   #9 (permalink) SirCharlie Chuck     Join Date: Feb 2009 Location: Oklahoma Posts: 438 My Mood: I saved this back in April and named it 2010 Finalists.

I know what you mean Chuck   11-07-2009, 10:53 AM   #14 (permalink) andrew289 Senior Analyst   Join Date: Sep 2006 Posts: 1,259 I'm not sure what all this guessing game is about but I thought it was announced months ago that the shield design had been selected. Pappio, It will take you all day to hit all 3 locations. The Grant statue ceremony will be swamped, Union station, a stone throw from the ceremony, will be swamped. Your best option is the mint head quarters. Just go through the line 3 times ..and you get the same 18 rolls with much less of a hassle.   11-07-2009, 05:33 PM   #15 (permalink) pappy-o coinoisseur     Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: SoCal Posts: 767 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by andrew289 I'm not sure what all this guessing game is about but I thought it was announced months ago that the shield design had been selected.
