[QUOTE="LostDutchman, post: 656140, member: 16994"]It seems to be the oppinion of most collectors I talk to that the US mint coinage of the last 10 years has been unimaginative at best. This is just a shining example of that philosophy. B-O-R-I-N-G!!! There were much much much better choices then this piece. Right now our coins STINK! We have dollar coins that don't circulate and look like casino tokens I received in Las Vegas. Big Stylized "$1" CAMON!! The cents don't bother me too much. I'm surprised there isn't a big "1" with a cents sign after it somewhere on the coin tho. Most of the state quarters are ugly and unappealing and I'm sure that the National Parks coins will be even worse. I do admit that I do find some of the commemorative dollars of the last 10 years appealing. The Lincoln dollar and the Marine corps dollar specifically. But over all the mint gets a D from me.[/QUOTE]
