[QUOTE="Doug21, post: 371622, member: 5650"]The Barber stuff is pretty uninspired, I'll agree. The cent never really was graced with a nice design ( except for Flying Eagle). The early Lincoln obverse of 1909 looks nice in MS red, by 1981 while still copper, it just looked totally different. The early nickels, where nothing great, the buffalo design was awesome, Jefferson can't live up to that. Roosy dime is hastily thrown together. Wash quarter is awful, esp. after the beautiful SL design. Franklin half is awful compared to the fantastic WL design. Kennedy is hastily done like Roosevelt. Ike is more of the same, but reverse is artistic. SBA is Brutal on the obverse side Sac is pretty decent Those designs of the early 20th century are like 60's rock, they will never be equaled. My opinions, of course ![/QUOTE]
