snowman Pillar of the Community United States 1840 Posts	Posted 12/23/2009 5:04 pm I voted for the Alaska quarter. Not because I'm a homer, but because I felt that the field was lack-luster. As a circulating coin, at least the quarter has utility. Last year there were 3-4 coins on the list that I would have been tempted to buy. This year there really aren't any.
