I thought you ment an engraver, maybe you were going to engrave your name on your coins in case you lose them.....

I like Augustus Saint-Gaudens, though technically he was a sculptor.

Robert Scot, although he was an SOB (I apologize to my canine friends!) who guarded his position at the mint at the expense of John Reich. I've always been a fan of the Draped Bust design and coins of that era.

His best design was the Draped Bust designs (1795 - 1808) were the best. The Matron Head cents (1816-35) were the worst.

All Designers that had Vision. And least i forget James E. Fraser for the design of a five cent piece that we should still be minting today.

Was i supposed to mention the Gold coin designers also?

I agree about weinman, walkers, mercs, and SAEs are great designs.
