    No.

    Nothing to do with the design--I don't have any desire to buy bullion coins at grossly inflated prices from the mint.

    For that kind of money I could have a key date classic US coin. So no.

    No thanks! I like the president, but not the coin.

    I wouldn't mind getting one but the hype would have to significantly die down. It'll be high for a while after the Mint issues them.

    It doesn't matter who the President is, a living President should not promote the idea of putting his image on a US coin. Hubris.
    I am sure there are other bullion coins with less mark up.

    To me, the eagle looks more like a wood carving than a majestic bird. And no I would not buy one.

    My first reaction is Julius Caesar, second is Nero and third is that it is a piece of narcissistic crap.

    Anything to feed the ego. I like him but sometimes I don't like him. That rendition of him looks like something out of The Apprentice. Given the current price of metals....hell no.

    That's kind of inevitable when the illustration is a 2-D rendering and not an actual coin photo.

    Well, we now have colorized super hero coins and now this. The Mint should be ashamed of itself. Nothing political, it's just a bad looking coin.

    I actually kind of like the design. But if it's gold it will be too expensive, and even if I had that kind of money lying around, there's other things I'd rather spend it on. But I honestly wouldn't mind having one if money was no object.

    As long as I'm expressing unpopular coin opinions let me also say I like the superhero coins. But I only bought the Superman one and that's the only one I intend on buying.
