    Oh, but isn't some ugly old lady or an Indian woman so much more attractive? :desk:

    It may be rare some day (seriously). Ugly but rare.

    Im warming to them also. Very art deco, and in an odd way very futuristic. His lady liberties look great!

    That $20 coin may not be a bad idea for the Govt. to adopt.

    Yes I see these having a great value in perhaps 100 years. (going back to that 'coins collected in 2158 thread'

    His parody state quarters are a real Hoot!

    I dont much like the design of the 'liberty', but i really like the overall design of the 2 sides. The Eagle looks very nice!

    I honestly dont know how he legally gets away with making this particular coin. Its not a counterfeit, and not a copy, but it does imply being backed by the authority of the United States of America.

    You show this coin to most anyone and I feel they would understand this to be an American legal tender coin. Given the price of silver, it very well could be. Though it would take a bloody damn fool to spend one of these for twenty bucks.....

    Anyway, just as long as he dosent pull them before he sends me mine:D

    (and notice, theres no In God We Trust on it)

    I may well order a few more of these....CAN you imagine, if the Govt. would indeed adopt exactly this same coin, unchanged, as a mint issue in perhaps 2010?? What do you think would happen to the value of these seventy five 2007's?? Dats something to think about, eh??
