[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2172154, member: 15929"]Personally, I do not think that classic coin designs can successfully be manufactured with today's modern equipment. In 2006, one of the commemoratives was the Granite Lady in which the reverse of a Morgan Dollar was incorporated. It came out terrible and the commem simply was not very popular. Sure, there was a 6 month hype wave which surrounded the release but after that, the coin dropped to what every other commem costs in today's market. It's not so much the design as much as it is the relief and they just cannot seem to get that correct.[/QUOTE]
