I love these but being from Colorado I'm a little bummed by the fact that it loos like they Mt. Humbolt in the background instead of awesome and stunning Kit Carson, Challenger and The Crestones... I dunno, maybe it's just the mountaineer in me but if your gonna put 14ers on a coin, make them AWESOME! http://jonathanvigh.com/outdoors/14...ak/20070526/ - random photo from the internets. Also, unless those people are absolutely slathered in sunscreen, you just don't play beach at 8,200 feet... just sayin... :) |

Very nice.
I like all of them.
I bet they will look even better as proofs.
I almost think the mint (or panel) chooses the designs based on how the proofs will look (and sell)

Really looking forward to see how well the Colorado design comes out on the coin. Like the Father-son theme spending time together.

I can't complain too much about this set. I wouldn't say grand slam, but a blooper over the left field wall for a homer, that I could go with.
And Everglades is the best out of the 5. An alligator EATING the spoonbill would have made that grand slam. ;)

These look wonderful. Especially Smokey Mountain! Shenandoah also has promise, we'll have to see how the mountains turn out. Can't wait to get these.

I concur, 2014 designs are better than the 2013's.

I'm not a fan of the parent and child in the Sand Dunes one...
I've been to all of this years locations so I'll have to pick them up

Definitely agree this is a strong year for the designs overall. The hiker on the VA one isn't bad but the people in the Sand Dunes is atrocious. I cant imagine anyone goes there to build Sand Castles like that, at the very least that has to be rare. Had they left them out of it it would have been a nice design.
Overall should be a great year
