<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MrSpud, post: 89238, member: 4621&quot;]As everyone knows, Jamie Franki&#039;s design was chosen to be the new obverse for the Jefferson Nickel. I had the pleasure of viewing his original drawing when it was on display at a coin design exhibit that Jamie did in Salisbury, NC.&nbsp; Here is a picture of the drawing:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://nexus.mythicdesigns.net/spudcoins/NewJeff.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Also on display were some other designs that Jamie did for the new nickel that weren&#039;t chosen. Here are three of them, two reverses and one obverse:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://nexus.mythicdesigns.net/spudcoins/9.10JFMonticello.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://nexus.mythicdesigns.net/spudcoins/9.10JFMonticello2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://nexus.mythicdesigns.net/spudcoins/9.10JFJeffersonPortrait.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>And here is one more, actually my personal favorite, that I don&#039;t think that the good people of Virginia would approve of <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> . The obverse is of another person named Jefferson who lived on the grounds of Monticello, and the reverse is of another building on the Monticello grounds:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://nexus.mythicdesigns.net/spudcoins/9.10JFOtherJefferson.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
