    Cool! Wish my book looked like that. I've only found about half of them so far from the Denver Mint and a few from Philly.

    There is a person in it, on the path to the right, yes?

    It is exceptionally hard to capture anything like the scale of the Grand Canyon in an image. I couldn't do it, though I made some very pretty pictures. I have to think that it is flatly impossible in the medium of a coin. The problem is that the Canyon is so big, that any view that includes things like individual trees and people, recognizable as such, is necessarily only a tiny piece of the whole.

    It's hard enough to grasp when one is there, with the real thing stretching out before you into the hazy distance!
