[QUOTE="jody526, post: 5105, member: 578"]Well, here's hoping that the Father of our country will stay right where he belongs. It's obvious that our hobby is growing faster than ever, despite the fact that great American heros have remained as coinage design elements. The Statehood quarter program is, and continues to be, so popular because it gives people something they can identify with. Many folks will tell you; "I'm proud to be a native New Yorker", or "Yeah, that's right, I'm from Texas, wanna fight about it?". (lol) Other coin design changes have failed to generate much enthusiasm because not enough people could find anything about them to identify with. Every design series has it's fans and it's detractors. And there are plenty of different designs to choose from, despite what many might tell you. Certainly no shortage of mythical figures, or predatory/scavanger birds to go around. So, I don't want there to be any hard feelings over me expressing my opinion on the issue of coin designs. I can assure you that I don't harbor any ill will towards those that disagree. ~Jody~[/QUOTE]
