<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kanderus, post: 1387732, member: 28447&quot;]Aye, the Susan B. is a nasty coin. I am not fond of the Ike either. Nor the old cents and half dollars, etc etc. It looked like they made Liberty out to be a donut eatin&#039; couch potato.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Also, I am of two minds about the silver Barber coinage. On one hand, they have nice appeal in a proof form. Also, it was almost the beginning of die-makers really being able to but great detail in the standard circulating coin. However, they all looked the same. The Quarter and Half were identical, the Dime had minor differences and the reverse of the dime was hardly different than that of the Seated dime. Also, Barber made Liberty look like a man, imo. Like Ceasar... On the Standing, Walking, and Winged Liberties, she looks like a woman. Same for the Morgan and Peace dollars...and the V-nickel...pretty much every coin she has appeared on in U.S. history besides the Barber design.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
