[QUOTE="GoldenFire, post: 1242045, member: 21162"]I love both the obverse and reverse of the Buffalo Nickel. In fact, I prefer this design over the current Jefferson design. However, I am Native American, so I am bias in that regard. :) I don’t care much for portraits of Susan B. Anthony or Eisenhower on their respective dollars. For example, I’ve always felt like they intentionally designed the coin so that Susan B. Anthony looked like an old hag/witch. Who knows, maybe the designer was against the Woman’s Movement. :too-funny: Seriously though, I strongly believe that they could have depicted Susan B Anthony better. On the other hand, I absolutely love the reverse design on both the SBA and Ike Dollars (yes, I’m aware that the design is identical :D). Whenever I look at the depiction of the eagle landing on the moon I always feel a sense of pride. Almost as if I am internally saying, “Yeah, take that Russia! We won the Space Race.” :yes:[/QUOTE]
