[QUOTE="Endeavor, post: 1978514, member: 60292"]I've always been attracted to coins with large uninterrupted fields. As ironic as it might sound, lack of design is among my favorite designs. I guess it's cause the way luster comes off the coin in an even appearance. I'd like to ask everyone to post photos of coins with large fields that they admire (or even if you don't admire). I'll start with a few... Although the design is very "busy" in the center, I find the surrounding fields around seated Liberty are what make this coin special. This is the no stars design. The stars version ruins it for me. [IMG]http://www.reedededge.com/images/SeatedLibertyDimeNoStars-1.jpg[/IMG] To a lot of people the Canadian Centennial silver dollar design might look boring.
