Ozark. Mainly because it does not show any other people.

I like the Ozark and the George Rogers Clark. The others are sleepers if you ask me. None the less I will have them all in silver and both mintage's of the 5 oz pucks.

Ozark is by far my favorite. I think it will look really good in silver proof form.

I'm glad they went with the design that they did for the Missouri.
That is the only one of the final designs that I like.
I did like some of the other states potential designs but of course those didn't get chosen.

I like Ellis Island. Something about the kid's face, I dunno. It will be interesting to see how well the details come out.
I just don't get the Effigy Mounds. Maybe it will look better in-hand.

Great Smoky Mountains, Cumberland Gap, Teddy, George Rogers Clark not necessarily in this order. There are others that appeal to me, but I'm kinda traditional and like the eagle. However I credit both the states and parks for my renewed interest in the coin hobby.

Ozarks. I agree with Jbuck. Are there not enough iconic natural images from which to choose? Not a big fan of people being depicted on any of the national park coins, with the exception of Teddy.

Ozark and then Ellis Island. EI would take the cake if they did a little more with the detail. Also if they could figure out a way to get the Statue of Liberty in the background, this will definitely be one I will get in 5oz.

No people on National park quarters? I agree that they tend to be better without people, but in addition to teddy, I think Ellis island needs to have people on it. The people are what make it so special.

I do agree that some places need people, but certainly not all. It seems lazy to throw people in just to fill out a design.
