De Orc Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 I happen to like the new President coins LOL going against the trend I know, so I have posted the first 2 pairs that I have along with my first Sac. I would like to try and get a deep cameo version of that, I think it would look lovely. My only real problem with the Pres dollar is the mint mark on the rim, the designs are quite nice to look at, and I honestly cant understand why there have been so many complaints! Time & time again on the forums I have seen people demand, request, pray for new US coin designs and when you get them its Oh I dont like that LOL same for the Quarter with the state issues for the most part very nice looking coins in my humble opinion 2007d $1 Presidential Issue Statue of Liberty George Washington 1732–1799 1st President of the USA 2007p $1 Presidential Issue Statue of Liberty George Washington 1732–1799 1st President of the USA 2007d $1 Presidential Issue Statue of Liberty John Adams 1735–1826 2nd President of the USA 2007p $1 Presidential Issue Statue of Liberty John Adams 1735–1826 2nd President of the USA 2007d $1 Bald Eagle in flight Sacagawea and her son, Jean Baptiste 1788–1812 Modeled on a Shoshone woman named Randy'L He-dow Teton 2007p $1 Bald Eagle in flight Sacagawea and her son, Jean Baptiste 1788–1812 Modeled on a Shoshone woman named Randy'L He-dow Teton Mock me if you will I dont care LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

De Orc Posted November 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 What is the quality of the proof Pres coins like? so far I have not seen any pics of any and would love to see some before I decide to invest LOL I have to agree that some of the quartes shall we say leave a bit to be desired LOL but overall I wish that the Royal mint would take note and do something similar over here for the counties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frank Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 * sigh * I know I'm an old crank, but I find it hard to get excited about the Presidential dollars; try as I may, they still look to me like something the gas stations used to give out. I think the SACs are quite serviceable and interesting, though. But then again I tend to only like old things, so in 20 years I'll probably like the new dollars.

numismatic nut Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 I like the pres dollars so much I buy unc roles at face at my bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt-AWACS Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 I like the Sac reverse very much and think the statue of liberty is a great idea though it looks "cheap" on the Prez, still a nice enough design. I still use them more in Ecuador than anywhere else since they are legal tender and shipped there but in the States I use them from time to time.
