The Mint released the designs chosen for next year's ATB Quarters, as seen in this Coin World article and on the Mint's homepage. To make it easier, I'll post them below. Which are your favorites?      Personally, I like the Voyageurs, Pictured Rocks, and Apostle Islands the most in that order, with Block Island coming in fourth and Cumberland Island a solid last. Cumberland Island looks a lot like the Everglades or Bombay Hook designs. The least they could've done was chosen something other than a bird. But all in all, I like the designs for this year save for that one. |

More birds? Block Island is my favorite, and at least I'll have an easier time telling these apart than with Bombay Hook and Everglades.
Is Cumberland Island the first design to cross over the border? It makes for a neat effect.

Voyageurs is my favorite - only because its the only one from my home state.
I really enjoy all the quarters so far. Makes it a fun piece to collect.

I am not a fan of this series. The designs are OK but I think would look better on a bigger coin.

The first time I really examined a Fort Moultrie quarter, I thought that overlap was a die break or something. Then, I googled it.  I think Voyageurs is my favorite, followed by Pictured Rocks.

To me, all the designs are okay. None really stand out for me.

Really dig the Minnesota, Wisconsin and Rhode Island quarters.
If they're going to continue with quarter series, I always thought it would be cool to do state birds.

The Pictured Rocks would be first then Voyageurs then the rest in no specific order.

Once again, they look good in drawings, and may look OK on the hockey pucks, but are going to be muddled mess in circulated strikes.
