The subject matter for Nevada seems pretty trivial. I don’t know enough Nevada history to confidently suggest an alternative, but I would think that their mining history might have yielded some valuable innovation.
Thank you for sharing once again.

I think they've "jumped the shark" by issuing a coin celebrating "copper riveted clothing". 😕

Yeah, what next? North Dakota invents phlegm????

The best thing Nevada ever invented was the $2 buffet breakfast!!!!

I want to know the fate of the rubber chicken.

The legend on #1 ("CHILDREN READ HER BOOKS") is clunky.

It also doesn't fit with the other designs, which simply state the contribution of the person/state rather than making an awkward statement.

Beverly Cleary's contribution was children's literature, and this would be a better alternative to the current legend.

Maybe the Nevada design should be changed to include "people wear our pants". 🤠

I have a 1996 D Lincoln penny graded by ICCS at MS 66 that has the same doubling as the 1995 coin shown in the price chart on this site


but I don't see an entry for a 1996 DDO coin. Would my coin be valued approx. the same as the 1995 coin? I will post a photo of my 1996 coin.

I have one somewhere, though I remember being disappointed that he wouldn't sell me the one he had slabbed with a clipped planchet.
