I kind of like the designs. Except the Nickel and Penny. I think over time people will see them as something different from what has existed for a long time.
I think about when I first found a centenary quarter, it'll be like that. They could have been much, much worse. Check out Two Euro commemorative coins. Some words on a coin or something bad like that.

I'm only buying the dime in PCGS or CAC PR 70 DCAM slabs.
The rest will be just the unc set and from mint rolls.
Other than the dime I am disappointed.
More dead presidents.yawn.

Thanks Billy for the link to the Vid and to the coin site.
Looks like they all get dual dates Including the 1 cent coin - but no mentions of its composition.

I wonder if the 3 roll quarter product will still be on a subscription.

More than likely a Zincoln, Dearborn.
In 2009, to use the old copper alloy in the unc and proof sets took it being written into the law.

They could sure be a whole lot worse. I like a couple of them and don't hate any.
Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.

The dime is the real nice one, cladking.
I bet it will look real nice in silver.

I like the designs chosen for the dime and the half-dollar, the quarters are meh. . . Same here. I shudder to think what the silver proof set will cost...  Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

CCAC had some impact:
The dime and half dollar, obverse and reverse.
The reverse of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution quarters.
The dual dating of the cent and 5 cent coins.

The mint has the half dollar and cent under "Collectible coins".
I wonder if there will be mint rolls of cents.

I wonder what happened in the process of choosing the designs for the quarters that they decided to reuse old designs for four of the obverses. Feels like a rush job.

I agree on the quarters, ibagli. Rush job plus there are only 2 of them that are really pertinent to the 250th, IMO. The Revolutionary War and the Declaration of Indpendence. Btw,  Edited by DoubleEagle20

Again with the five quarters?!? And they end at the Gettysburg Address! That was 160 years ago, nothing has happened since then? The back of that quarter is very similar to the Ohio Innovation Dollar reverse just turned sideways and the chain removed.
The bicentennial coins were more low key, they changed the reverses of only three coins.
Overall, I think they're not bad, not great either. I thought they were going to be much worse.
