SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 06/16/2007 11:47 am I believe the best design work currently minted in this country is not being done at the U.S. Mint. Here are examples of one reason for this belief - Daniel Carr's Nikola Tesla Sesquicentennial Commemorative, in brass and silver. Each is one of 54 struck. As of this posting, a few are still available, here: http://www.dc-coin.com/ Report this Post to the Staff

This is supposed to be a US COIN. That means dull, boring, repetitive, with two dimensional relief." Report this Post to the Staff
