And when they do, it is not uncommon for them to feel kind of unsatisfied. The quarter eagle is a small coin, about the size of a dime. Small enough that you barely know you have one in your hand, even when you do. </p><p><br /></p><p>Of course the dollar gold is even tinier, and lighter, and much harder to see and appreciate the design. In a way these feeling are something that kind of rest in our subconscious, and we are often even unaware that they are there, until we hold one of the coins in our hands. That is when they spring to life and we become all too aware.</p><p><br /></p><p>And that is one of the things that makes, and always has made, collecting half dollars and dollars so popular. The tactile size and weight of the larger coins, as well as the ability to easily see the design without the aid of magnification, lends a great deal to the feeling of satisfaction for collectors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
