[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 442552, member: 13650"]Well, good point. We've been stuck on a lot of pretty plain designs for a long time. I can't get that excited over the presidential dollars. Although, given what they're trying to do with them, I couldn't tell you what a better design should have been. The reverse looks ok to me I guess. I didn't care for the state quarters until about a month ago, I started collecting them from circulation and the silver proofs. With them, I think they'll be much more appreciated down the road. We've just been inundated with them for 9 years so they're not that big of a deal right now. There were huge mintages. They'll be around a long time. But I bet collectors will appreciate them a lot more 100 years from now and into the future. I'd like to see them change some designs just once again, like they used to, instead of having 50 different types of quarters, 4 different types of nickels, etc... I think the Kennedy design is past due for a change. 45 years is long enough. These being one of the larger coins, they should be able to come up with something creative. Hopefully.[/QUOTE]
