    The design on the trade just doesn't have that "kick"

    Good thread! So, I vote for the one I want next gone, right? Goodbye, Flowing Hair! Looks like 4th grade art.

    Looks to me that it'll be a race for #3-5 because I am prognosticating that the final results will be:

    Draped Bust will likely win #1
    Flowing Hair will likely be #2
    Seated Liberty #3
    Morgan #4 (maybe)
    Trade #5

    Is the Draped Bust really a nice design? I sure don't think so.

    Looks like draped bust is going to win the whole shibang.

    Don't let the Morgan DIE! Vote Bust! It's that cleavage, it has you all thinking with the wrong anatomy.
    Prost!

    Why step over the dollar to get to the cent? Because it's a 55DDO.

    Any Seated Liberty Coin is Absolutly Beautiful. I wish they would make coins today like that.

    PURPLE!

    It might be that Draped Bust is not getting a lot of votes right now, because a lot of people that would vote for it, might be voting for Morgan and Trade right now... image

    The trade dollar design is one of the most complex and interesting ever done. Those voting against it SUCK! image

    Liberty sits on a bale of hay [with wheat] symbolizing agriculture and trade. She faces West [China across the Pacific] and her outstretched hand holds an olive branch symbolizing an offering of peace. And of course the eagle on the reverse is one of the all time best!

    I voted for the Morgan Dollar .... blah! image

    Toss Morgan from the mix.

    Really? I always thought it was somebody from school wearing a bedsheet who's having a majorly bad hairday and wearing a stupid prom queen tiara who's tickeling someone elses' ear with a weed, sitting on summer reading books piled on top of a recliner covered with shag carpet with part of an unfinished report or project (that banner that says LIBERTY) there too in a flooded room. Also, the bird (because I don't think it's an eagle) appears to be thinking "What the heck is with this banner that says E Pluribus Unum above my head" and definitley needs to do something about those noodle feathers (Like taking out the styling gel) and maybe get plastic surgery. Does anyone else think this or do I just have an overactive imagination? And, I must really suck because I voted against the Trade Dollar 3 times.

    I guess it's come down to the wire for the Morgan. I predict, unfortunately, that my favorite coin is on the way out.

    You're welcome. I'm glad they've been well received.

    I have to admit that the idea for the polls isn't origanally mine. I gleened the idea from a Star Trek web forum I visited a while back. They held a Star Trek Episode Survivor game. I just modified it for Coins!!

    Excelcior!!!

    When I (eventually) vote for the Trade dollar, can I sue TDN for saying I suck? image

    Kudos to jhar for a fun series of threads. This is the first one in which I have participated, but like the reality shows, it is easy to get hooked.

    How in the world can you guys think the Morgan Obverse design is the worst compared to the other four.

  • ms70ms70 Posts: 13,954 ✭✭✭✭✭

    You know, the U.S. Mint should pay attention to this poll. Maybe they'll get some ideas for the next dollar coin.


    Naaaah. They couldn't care less what anyone else wants, not to mention politics.
