<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 2172512, member: 1765&quot;]The detail and relief of classic designs can be made with today&#039;s equipment.&nbsp; There&#039;s incredible detail on some of the ATB quarters and look no further than the 2009 UHR $20 gold for relief.&nbsp; The problem is that there is not the will to make them effectively.&nbsp; The 2006 &quot;Granite Lady&quot; commems you cite look a bit off to the casual collector, and hideous to anyone who has studied either of the featured designs closely.&nbsp; The 2001 Buffalo nickel commemorative dollar is another example of this.&nbsp; Die life and the ability to produce cameo (and reverse cameo) proofs are more important than artistic quality of the finished result.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
