augsburger Pillar of the Community Germany 1064 Posts	Posted 04/24/2009 4:59 pm Do you get the feeling that the congress building will be on the coin? Do ya? Only HALF of them, and it seems a little silly, as the congress building is already on one of the them this year (okay, almost all of the congress building, bar the bit that wasn't finished)!

That might change, but for now it appeals to me.

DNA Pillar of the Community United States 2734 Posts	Posted 04/24/2009 11:39 pm That's a nice reverse you showed us, thanks jbuck! I personally favor a 'shield' theme because the shield was depicted on almost all of the circulation coins minted during Lincoln's presidency. Report this Post to the Staff
Jim Archibald Valued Member United States 198 Posts	Posted 04/25/2009 07:49 am Frankly I think the design recommended by the commission on fine arts looks like a "Turkey Tail" and as far as being artistic, it's not ballanced out properly. I was hoping for something like LP-13 the Shield of the Union, which would certainly become a classic design in future years. Instead we get turkey tails. One thingthat I've come to depend upon, is no asthetically pleasing designs being produced by the U.S. Mint in the modern era. I'm actually a bit surprised by the positive response this "recommended" design has gotten here on the board. ~ Jim Report this Post to the Staff

The idea is the thanks to Lincoln we are ONE NATION instead of two. Edited by Conder101 04/27/2009 12:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Jim Archibald Valued Member United States 198 Posts	Posted 04/27/2009 3:20 pm It still looks like a turkey tail. ~ Jim Report this Post to the Staff
