<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MetaCoin, post: 960445, member: 26699&quot;]Well, if there is a list of the CCAC coin guide reference images online I can&#039;t find it. There are photos on page 62 and 80 of the July 19 Coin World issue. Looking more closely this time, the list is of either or both coin obverses and reverses; for example both sides of the U.S. $20 Saint and the Indian Head nickel are included.</p><p><br /></p><p>Contemporary coins include the U.S. 2005 Jefferson nickel, the 2003 Sac, and the 2007 Segregation commemorative. World issues include the UK 2009 five-piece shield set, the 2008 Holland Architecture coin, and the Australia Kookaburra.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hopefully you can find a copy of Coin World to see all of the images. I seriously doubt that any five CoinTalk members selected at random would agree on whether or not the coins in this reference set are examples of design excellence; which is my point. The CCAC has recently notified the Mint of factual errors on proposed new U.S. coin design, and of that I have no problem; seems to be a legitimate advisory body effort. I&#039;m not convinced that defining coin design excellence will be as easy, hubris-free, or ultimately fruitful.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
