[QUOTE="Mr Nice Guy, post: 2153428, member: 74547"]I appreciate the honest feedback here. I figured it wasn't a mint product as there is no seal or signature, but just had to make sure. I am glad you guys learned me to this whole industry of people who paint coins; I did not realize it was so widespread. My heart doesnt really stand behind that business model, however this particular troupe did good work laying the painting....it looks like it was from a machine or program based off the imperfections and edges. For me the bicentennial quarter is sacred because I remember being excited to find them in pocket change since I was a child (born in '88,) and the reverse just reminds me of drum and fife battle songs, and mel gibson with a tomahawk :P It gives me the patriotic feels I guess. Its embarassing to post the price in lieu of all the comments, but this $7 will bring me more enjoyment than 2 beers at the bar any day![/QUOTE]
