In general, anyone else prefer the reverse of our coinage??

I find the reverse of most all of our coinage to be more attractive that the obverse. So much so that I put the reverse forwards in my 7070 type set. Anyone else this crazy?
Everything I write is my opinion.

Looking for alot of crap.

    In general, I do for sure. The obverse usually has more elements, and in many cases contains more indicators of quality.

    I agree, the obverse is definately a little lacking. Sounds like the best side of your type set is looking from the rear.

    I like the Revs as well, in fact in my date sets , I always have some Revs faced forward, i think I have these two flipped over

    I generally like the reverse a bit better than the obverse. And is it easier or harder to keep the reverse interesting when it's the same subject--an eagle!?image

    Yea, but the obverses are all (almost) HEADS.
