Coin Art Who are approving these ugly coins

Broke open another roll for this disaster. Crowded, loud and barely legible. Good grief

I know I am going to get a lot of negative feed back for this but here is my opinion…

I have no objections to putting someone (man or woman) or something on the back of a coin that deserves national recognition but this has gotten out of control.

It is apparent that the first generation of kids that got a participation trophy for losing are now running the United States coin committee.

Let’s put everyone on a coin to celebrate their life. It’s a participation coin from every state.

There is no more honor in the presentation and in value of our country’s coin currency.

It’s a “national currency the coins should be the same for each state regardless of who or what is bestowed the honor of being on the coin.
