  1. Great subject matter for a US coin….I look forward to their release and I’ll be buying several of each type coin.

    Lots of good designs but my favorites are:

    Gold $5:
    Obverse: 5
    Reverse: 1

    Silver Dollar $1:
    Obverse: 3, 5
    Reverse: 7

    Half Dollar clad:
    Obverse: 5
    Reverse: 4

    Special mention design: AL-S-R-04
    This American Eagle is really nice. This should be a design candidate for the new American Silver Eagle reverse which is long, long, long overdue for a design revision.
