Personally, I'd like to see our current president on the obverse, with Mt McKinley, sorry Mt Obama, sorry Mt Denali on the reverse.


I hope that was a joke

Many of these designs are very nice, but far too intricate to fit on the tiny dime.
I have to agree. The mock-ups are nice, but they need to be simplified for the size.

Yes, sometimes simplicity is key.

There was a mock-up on page 1 of this thread with the head of the Statue of Liberty but it had some noise in the background. I think if you could eliminate the background and just use the head that might work. I do agree with folks here that the size of the coin impacts how busy the design should be.
