<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 26494950, member: 4626&quot;]I kind of agree if anyone were to ask my opinion before the fact, but once a coin comes into existence I basically see it as a moot point, and make my judgment on what I think of the coin, and while my opinion of the subject of the coin factors into whether or not I want it in my collection, it&#039;s not my only deciding factor and often isn&#039;t even my main deciding factor, if that makes sense.</p><p><br /></p><p>The novelty and aesthetics of a given coin factor into it more greatly for me than whatever my opinion of the coin&#039;s subject is, usually.&nbsp; I own the 1995 Special Olympics commemorative, that depicts Eunice Shriver, who was still alive at the time (she died in 2009).&nbsp; If you asked me before the fact whether someone still alive should be on a coin, I&#039;d probably say no, but as the coin now exists despite that, it&#039;s one I decided I wanted to have.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
