<p>[QUOTE="MetaCoin, post: 1117002, member: 26699"]I don't know the CFA members thoughts, but your question about oak leaves could be why obverse 10 and reverse 16 were chosen instead of those with trees. 'Classic' may refer to the somewhat abstract images of Liberty, the eagle (for strength), and the water that is apparently part of the memorial; the first two often used on early U.S. coin designs (though this will be a medal).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
