I don't know what the US Mint's tolerances are on the rotation of dies. But, on the Ocean View Philly nickel the die is definitely rotated several...
Yes, I know:p Notice I said "Just as with the old design". It essentially is the old design. It's supposed to provide more detail, But how much...
I hate the reverse, especially. Just as with the old design, monticello is way too small to notice any detail, and the inscription "UNITED STATES...
BTW, where did you find out that these were the designs to be chosen? I can't find any news story on it.
I like 1 and 3 as well. But in 3, it kinda looks like Jefferson has dreads. And, if I recall the Rastafarian movement hadn't made it's way yet. hehehe
Wow. Amazing. I really like that piece. Do you ever sell these?
Soooo, in other words, He lies!:D
No chance. Don't get your hopes up. I know which design you are talking about. Re-read the US MInt press release. It's the design that was on the...

SP stand for "Speciman" The Canadian Mint has been doing this for years. I don't know why they din't use the initials SF for Satin Finish. I've...
I just sent the guy this email. I think he may seriously consider my request: Dear specialtycoins2005, Hello. I noticed that the price for...
They won't. But, the US Mint will when it issues the silver proof sets.
That's up to John Snow now. The CFA and CCCAC are at odds what the coin should look like, so the decision now is in Sec. Snow's hands. Let's...
I think there has only been one coin depicting a living person. That would be the Shriver Special Olympics Dollar of 1995.
I'm working on putting together my US proof modern commemorative collection 1982-present in the original US mint packaging. I've just ordered the...
Oh, no problem. I don't mind at all, and am flattered actually. I was thinking it was a huge coinicidence, :) Anyway, I'm glad we agree on this...
