<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mlov43, post: 8157131, member: 16729&quot;]I agree that U.S. contemporary commemoratives, especially in the last few years, have design themes that seem REALLY narrow.&nbsp; Not that that&#039;s bad, it&#039;s like you say: it&#039;s just that there are other formats (websites, books, museums) other than coins that are more attractive for exploring such themes, unless one is really attracted to such pieces for some reason.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I wonder if the Mint finds that broader allegorical themes that celebrate the &quot;generic ideas&quot; of the Unites States or of liberty don&#039;t sell as well?</p><p><br /></p><p>In any case, the Mint could simply <b>reduce the mintages</b> of ANY of their commemorative coins, and LOTS of collectors would show much more interest, regardless of theme![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
