<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Coinchemistry 2012, post: 2172448, member: 28107&quot;]You are comparing apples and oranges.&nbsp; I don&#039;t care for them at all, but I do find them factually and legally distinguishable from Carr&#039;s work.&nbsp; The key is that Carr creates new devices, mottos, legends, etc., in the design or resemblance of authentic U.S. coinage that I believe contradicts the statute.&nbsp; Since he loves Andy Warhol so much, he could strike over a Peace Dollar with one of his works on both sides, and it would be legitimate and perfectly legal.&nbsp; No one would care enough to post critical comments even.&nbsp; The same logic applies to elongated cents and hobo nickels.&nbsp; Moreover, and most important, the resulting product hobo nickels and elongated cents look less like original Mint products and not more like the original product or how the original product would look if it still existed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
