daviscfad Pillar of the Community United States 4541 Posts	Posted 06/20/2010 11:08 pm I probably like the oregon trail one the best. I actually like all of the older ones though. It would be cool if they would release commemorative for circulation again like they used to Report this Post to the Staff

Check the reverse of both the Hawaiian half and the State Quarter. Same goes for the Oregon Trail half and the Nebraska State Quarter. Report this Post to the Staff

Great photos BTW Moe ..... much better than mine. Quote: Check the reverse of both the Hawaiian half and the State Quarter. Same goes for the Oregon Trail half and the Nebraska State Quarter. Excellent insight zazenboy ...... many thanks for that! I just checked mine out and agree with you ..... the historical theme repeats as you state. Would be fun to put together a seperate collection of the 6 coins with classic/modern ties ........ Still .... the Charter Oak is the only tree that I know of which has appeared on two USA coins.

zazenboy Valued Member United States 103 Posts	Posted 07/10/2010 10:09 pm Oh but wait, I missed out on a couple: Massachusetts Minuteman and the 1925 Lexington half, he appears on both. The Illinois half with its associated quarter, for the Lincoln theme, and if you were to include modern commems, the reverse of the Columbus Quincentenary dollar, the split of the Santa Maria and Discovery space shuttle, with the Florida quarter, the ship is of a similar type, and lastly if you were to accept my explanation of the Columbus/Florida connection, some credence can be given to Cesar Rodney on the Delaware quarter as being 'stylistically' similar to the riding Lafayette on the eponymous dollar! Happy hunting, PS more moderns: Mount Rushmore/South Dakota, American Buffalo and Yellowstone = North Dakota and Kansas... buffaloes are everywhere these days numismatically!
