<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coleguy, post: 1708615, member: 9167&quot;]If I were the Mint, I&#039;d get back to basics. End these 12 or more year runs of commemorative quarters. It was kinda fun the first time, but that mule is spent. Update and revise and hopefully implement new designs. I always hear how inefficient and cost prohibited higher relief coins are to mint, yet many, if not most, other countries still make coinage with far more relief than the wafers the US mint cheaply spits out. Cheap looking coins are often just plain cheap...in every conceivable sense. And finally, I&#039;d either cut the reins lose on, or hire other sculptors to design eye pleasing coins. I think the biggest problem the mint has is the design process is dictated by officials with absolutely no sense of artistic merit. Let the artists they have hired be artists and not yes men to blind sewer rats.</p><p>Guy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
