Which doesn't bode well for tomorrows junk if it makes today's coins look like classics.

I think that everyone has made valid points... I wonder what would have happened if I had posted in the Modern Coin Forum? :/

I like that idea that I enjoy the coins because of the artistic rendering of Liberty instead of a likeness of a dead president. Also the relief made it much more interesting between then coinage.

Anyone else?

You would have been flamed out of existence!

Just kidding. We do not allow that here.

To be honest, the topic would have been moved to the Classic US coins forum.

i prefer classic coins because they are works of art like paintings and were created by hand and made by hand. they are just more rare then the machine ones made today. the old coins are time travelers from a different place and time and reflect feelings and thoughts from that era.

The Buffalo nickels are some of my favorite. Obverse and reverse.
