<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MattMpls, post: 503198, member: 16397&quot;]I think the Washington quarter would have been fine as a one-year type as it was intended back in 1932, but over 75 years of them, blah. As for the Barber series, they are really not a bad looking coin in MS grades but in the condition most folks see them (G/VG), they&#039;re just not attractive. My list of faves would include the Saint Gaudens, Indian Eagle, Peace and Morgan Dollars, Walkers, Mercuries, Standing Lib quarters, Indian cents, Flying Eagle cents, Bust halves and 1790&#039;s gold. The modern regular issues are nothing more than tired old duds that have been minted for far too long. Some of the state quarter reverses have been interesting, but now there are too many overminted circulating commems out there that the mint is making a fortune off of. Typical of the mint&#039;s relentless march to mediocrity was the return to a 70 year old design on the Jefferson nickel reverse. The 2005 Jefferson/Bison nickel would have been a nice replacement. C&#039;est la vie.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
