I would buy it no matter what the design is.

I am definitely interested in this one.

Sam (I call him Sam) and I go way back. Met him when I time traveled back to 1893... San Francisco it was...

I like the simplicity and sentiment of reverse #2. Don't really have a favorite obverse.

If it wasn't marked with Mark Twain, some of the portraits reminds me of Albert Einstein.

There are plenty of pictures out there where the two of them look very similar... so I'm not sure it's an issue with the selected portraits, more of that they just have similar features.

What a great lunch that would be; hanging out with the two of them.

Due to how happy I am with the design and delivery of the U.S. Marshals coins... I can't wait to see these Twain gems.

Not that I want time to move any faster than it already is, I just think these are going to be great coins.

I've been re-reading "Huckleberry Finn" off and on for the past few months after DL'ing a very inexpensive Kindle version of Twain's complete works. I'll have a few more of his works under my belt by the time this coin rolls out!
