Although I have gathered the ridiculous redesigns from 1999 to this year.
ENOUGH. IT's DONE, FINISHED. US coin collecting has officially been murdered. Kaput, done, over.
That was hasty. I mean, coin collecting after the turn of the century.
A redesign every 2-3 months SERIOUSLY cheapens the hobby and makes it feel like a cheap crappy BS money game. Cheap.
Okay, the
Statehood Quarters were kinda cool. Even TEN YEARS, of redesigns. That's special! ONCE. Not in perpetuity, for crimminy's sake.
In my view, a lack of stability does NOT lead to MY interest in collecting.
When there's a new friggin' coin design every few months, sorry, but that blows it away for me.
And yes, that has been going on for a quarter century, and yes, I've been objecting just as long. I've had it up to the gills with this B.S. and I'm content to end my collection before it began.
In direct opposition to what others have said, I believe this crap is harmful to the hobby. Gone are the days when an album covered 60 years, and now it might cover a decade. Screw it!
