    Not with the liberals!!
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    I'm a liberal and plan to buy some. I think it will be a big hit.

    I think it will be a hit with all of the current and former marines.

    I work with a non collector Ex Marine that already knew about it when I said something to him a week or so ago.

    Yet another in a long line of uninspiring designs. Otoh, it will sell out thanks to marines past and present.

    I know I'm going to be buying. The design looks nice. The revese looks interesting.

    Can we keep politics out of the coin forum, please. Been enough heat in here lately.
    It's an inspiring design. I'm getting one. It would have made more sense to issue it for the 225th anniversary, IMO. 230 is a pretty random number...

    I like it. I want it.
    I don't like the fact that they upped the mintages at their whim though image

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    Yep, no doubt about it, that coin came from the US Mint. I will buy one as a keepsake.

    I think they upped the mintages for the anticipated high demand.

    Which I think is good so more people will be able to have one.

    It would be nice of the Mint donated a portion of the profits to the USO

    I don't mind the design, but I did make a few mods:

    I'm thinking of getting 5 of each finish. I think this could go the way of the LEO commem. or even sell out like the Buffalo (American Indian).

    Does anyone know what the significance of the 230th anniversary is? I have no idea?
    Everything I write is my opinion.

    Looking for alot of crap.

    It's just when it came up in committe, a few years too late for the 225th anniversary, but too far away from the 250th.

    I'll definately buy one of the 'Prestige' proof sets they release this year with it in it.
