<p>[QUOTE="GSDykes, post: 2392252, member: 73321"]You compare, the left image is of the campaign token/medal made by the Franklin mint, utilizing Robert's masterful portrait of Nixon. On the right the new 2016 U.S. dollar (non-circulating). I often wonder why the US mint did not resurrect Gilroy Robert's sculpture? Did the Franklin mint have a patent on it? or?? Everhart's (sp) version is terrible, note the hair, the eye wrinkles, the lines on the jacket, the posing of the lips, etc. etc.. Certainly they should have bought this from whoever has the copyright and used it instead of Everharts (sp) version. The new Kennedy dollar is terrible as well, and the Reagan dollar is an insult. I hope the mint cannot sell any of these. That they eat them - and melt them!!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]491633[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
