[QUOTE="bsowa1029, post: 1382060, member: 34652"]I was just thinking that all I ever read on this forum is how modern U.S. circulating coinage is all ugly, and I don't disagree at all. What I was wondering is how long do you all think it will be until the U.S. mint puts out a coin that has a design that most people can agree is great. After I thought about that, it got me wondering if classic designs like the walking liberty, the mercury, and other beautiful designs were always thought of like that, or was it not until years after they stopped being minted that people looked back and realized their beauty. Will that happen with some of the coins we find in our change everyday now? What are your thoughts? I'm only 23, so I have many years and design changes ahead of me and I hope that I can see a new design that may be an instant classic.[/QUOTE]
