<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 228730, member: 4626&quot;]Almost think that the design of the medal would have been a better way to go... first impression I get from the obverse of the coin is someone was trying to take a picture, but had the camera aimed too low, lol...</p><p><br /></p><p>Someone who didn&#039;t know anything about the event would look at the coin, and guess that in 2007 they desegreagted schools so people who wear different kinds of shoes could go to school together.</p><p><br /></p><p>Knowing about the event though I can make the leap from the abstract depiction.&nbsp; It&#039;s not that bad really, but they could have made it more clear what exactly is being celebrated, and when it took place.&nbsp; A simple &quot;1957-2007&quot; wouldn&#039;t have hurt.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reverse is a much better design though I think.&nbsp; Makes for a nice, dramatic picture; makes the school look interesting even were it not for what it is historically celebrated for.</p><p><br /></p><p>I had similar feelings for the World War II comm. half dollar; it has a very detailed, dramatic reverse (practically looks like an action sequence!) but a very underwhelming obverse.&nbsp; Myabe I&#039;ll just display it tails up or something.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
