After further consideration, the Roosevelt dime just has to go. Thinking of the Ike dollar, wouldn't it be interesting if they brought it back with a picture of Ike from South Park? But that would require the government bureaucrats to have a sense of humor -- but the mental image is self-amusing. Just trying to have some fun with this thread. |

Least favorite, man that's tough. I really like the Washington quarters compared to you guys. I was born in 93 so I really didn't grow up with them compared to the state/ATB quarters, which I dislike. I'm not a fan of just printing pictures in metal. I like the artistic creation that was put into coins. |

I do not like the Shield Cent and the current Jefferson nickel (the one where he's looking at you). He doesn't look flattering to me. |

The current 2006-up Jefferson nickel marries a blah new-age obverse portrait to the uninspired 1938 Monticello reverse.  The "Art-Deco" Monticello reverse proposed in 1937 would make for a great upgrade!  |

I'd be interested to know more about the proposed art deco Monticello design.

Quote:I dislike the obverse of the Peace dollar. The chick on the Morgan is way better looking than the hag on the Peace dollar. Minted to celebrate WW-1 peace, she doesn't look very happy plus she has a boxers nose The Peace dollar liberty may have a boxer's nose, but at least she doesn't have the Morgan Liberty's Jay Leno chin!  |

Chain cent obverse. Good heavens, I'd have believed it was the head of Medusa if only the hair strands were snakes. Ugh.
A pic of a Unc example was posted in over in the Korean forum, and people said it looked like a gaming token.

Roosevelt dimes, the new Jefferson portrait, and the Shield nickel are all just a bit boring in my opinion. The Shield nickel was just boring because it didn`t have an actual person on it, and the Roosevelt is just too old to be good anymore. |

The front side design of the state and parks quarters is just way too cluttered. The designs on the back are very nice though.
