<p>[QUOTE="Wren, post: 548099, member: 17275"]I have been think about this for a while and while the presidents on our coins were great men and probably deserve the spot at the same time, and the lincolns and washingtons are great but i'll look at my older us coins and love the design and artistry of the personifications of Liberty, i am also a foreign collector and love other countries who put symbols of their country, especially Marianne on the french francs and euros, i know the Mint is coming out with all these new coins and the quarter and dollar sets to raise coin collecting and also pride in the country, but i believe seeing the national personification brings up so much pride, i look at my old coins and am proudful of the us. i also look at the people i meet and it seems that there is such less pride in our country, it may also be a very vocalized minority who live in it but hate our country, anybody else wish that they would bring back the Liberty personification onto the coins and bring back the true artistry of coins instead of all the different sets, i like the sets and will probably collect circulated sets but still, its also strange that i post this because i am a true George Washington fan, sorry had to vent, anybody else have this feeling[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
