If you want to compare a US state quarter to a &quot;Bremen&quot; piece of (roughly) the same period of time, pick this one: <a href="http://ec.europa.eu/economy_finance/images/coins/de_2010.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://ec.europa.eu/economy_finance/images/coins/de_2010.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://ec.europa.eu/economy_finance/images/coins/de_2010.jpg</a>&nbsp; In general I appreciate the fact that today&#039;s coins do not necessarily look like pieces that were made 100 or 150 years ago. Does not mean that I like all contemporary designs, definitely not. Then again, I have seen pretty bland designs dated 1900 or so as well ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
