Not too thrilled with the cent and nickel designs but I love the Dime O-03 both obverse and reverse. Likewise with the quarter obverse CQ O-02 paired with the CQ R-07 reverse. For the half dollar I like the O-05 obverse paired with the R-05a reverse. Have any of these designs been officially chosen?

The cent and nickel choices look like counterstamps applied at home. Not a fan of either.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.artToo many hobbies .... too much work .... not enough time. |

Most of those designs look good on paper, but they will never render that detail into a coin. A few might look good as proofs.

Agree the cent and nickel look like a non mint counter stamp.

I like the Liberty Bell "250" counter stamp on the Penny and Nickel I hope they add it to the 2026 ASE, Peace and Morgan dollarsI also like the Dime-O-03 and Dime-R-03A design and hop that is the one they mint We're getting 5 quarters and I didn't see 5 designs that I like so there will be a couple flops in that group I love the Half-O-05 and Half-R-05a Half dollar designs, IMO it is the design that looks the most like a circulating coin instead of a commemorative It also interesting that we are getting a new Half Dollar every year from 2027-2030 I haven't seen anything for the Native American or Innovation Dollar coins which makes sense since they are not meant for circulation |

the counter stamp on the cent and nickel looks ok - at least you have the damaged or flattened reverse side like we see on the home stamps..  |

Wouldn't the stamp on the cent and nickel be considered a privy mark instead of a counter-stamp

Not sure why they keep motioning the "Constitution" on the quarter designs.
1776 was the "Declaration of Independence"
1787 was the "Constitution"

I hate to say it but almost all of the dime on up designs are too "artsy" and the general public will not accept them.
As an aside anyone else get an "invite" from Naxion marketing company on "behalf" of the mint to give their in person input but of course it could always be a phishing scam since it includes a $100 "honorarium".
Once again the forum restrictions on uploading pictures is blocking me.

Your file size cannot exceed 300k Do the MOD's not know most cameras take an 8 meg size pic and even when I tried to do a screen shot on my dial up desktop of the email I got and resize with free MS Paint since Photoshop that you used to be able to dilute the resolution and save as a 3 instead of a 10 is no longer and option and a program and is now a monthly fee subscription.
