Quite frankly I think everything went downhill once everyone stopped putting in the extra time to improve the quality of the desired product. For example where I live at there are a lot of remarkable 1830's buildings here. You would not find such quality workmanship today. As for coins you look at the artistic masterpieces that we had in the 1800s that depicted images that had represented the American Values and way of life.
