<p>[QUOTE=&quot;andrew289, post: 712175, member: 6463&quot;]I Love this rant. It sums up the quater hater movement very well.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>To a kid, i don&#039;t think a silver 64 quarter looks that fun compared to Washington Crossing the Delaware. That&#039;s freaking awesome and one of my favorite paintings. I&#039;m doubtful that you have ever seen it in real life. It&#039;s breathtaking and makes one proud to be an American to be in it&#039;s presence.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>By diluting, you must mean getting millions of non collectors interested and excited about coins? You sound a little elitist there.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Designs are crap? It&#039;s easy to complain but how many designs did you submit to your state? How involved did you get in the process of selecting your state&#039;s coin? Did you lobby for a design that you liked but wasn&#039;t selected? It&#039;s one thing to be an arm chair quarterback but really?&nbsp; Just because some designs don&#039;t meet your exacting standards ..that are now crap? ...Oh, ok.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;m glad the mint makes coins that little kids like. Little kids are the collectors of tomorrow and the future of the hobby is in their hands and the hands of the other 140 million state quarter collectors who are now collecting that never did before 1999.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Bravo US Mint ...keep up the good work ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
