I think that the MI quarter is one of the worst looking since this program
started. And I grew up in MI!

They should have at least included the bridge or a little car or SOMETHING!

Gees guys, take it easy on the design, it could have been far worse... it
could have featured J. Stone's favourite former governor aka "Fatso Stupid",
and his unlovely bucktoothed wife. So see, the current design sucks
voluminous hiney, but it could have featured the fat hiney.

said for FS."

I didn't want to say it's the worst quarter design because we still have
5 more years of state quarters ahead of us but I think most will agree
this Michigan design is pretty bad. I hate to imagine another future
state quarter design that looks worse than this Michigan design but I
have a feeling something worse will probably appear. Ed

I don't understand your joke. Do you mean that the 10 year old is the
chairman of the design committee?

Keith, did you read the article or glance at it quickly? The boy is 6
yrs old not 10. I was reffering to the boys father the chairman of the
deign committee/coin dealer. When I wrote about the michigan design
being beautiful that was sarcasm, I didn't see the need to point that
out because I thought it was so obvious. Ed

With the changed rules (submitting ideas instead of drawings) I would expect
things to improve from here. And I hope there are NO ... MORE ... STATE
.... OUTLINES!!!

I hope so too. Can you imagine a
quarter for Colorado as a state outline. Dull beyond belief.

A downhill skier would be a good design
for Colorado.

Colorado could have some good choices.
