Hi guys, I just got my first M.R. quarter in change. Is it me or the bigger face(I think it's suppose to be Lincoln)pictured, doesn't it look like Kennedy more than Lincoln? I do like the coin in general though.What do you guy's think?-joey

<< <i>I work in retail in Maine and our change comes from Fifth Third Bank, and I ordered 4 boxes of quarters ($500) ea. for my store, and they are all Rushmore quarters mixed in w/ older quarters. Something like 75% Rushmore, and the others older. Curious they are being distributed now. >>
Do you think it's possible someone ordered from the Mint and then cashed some in? Maybe the culls?
I, too, live in Maine, and I received four of the Mt. Rushmore quarters in change last week. They were nice enough, and different enough, for me to take a second look, but I can't say that I thought that the likeness in the foreground was Kennedy. That portrait is truncated so that only the left eye, nose and upper lip is visible, so it is difficult to say.
It does seem odd, though, that 2013 quarters would be distributed now, and in Maine.

Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
I am not seeing JFK though.

I believe that is Washington (far) and Jefferson (near)

Yep. There are two additional portraits between Lincoln and Washington, and Lincoln and Washington both
face the same way. That is definitely Jefferson in the foreground. Not seeing any resemblance to JFK.

That image reminds me of " Gulliver's Travels"!

PS- one can only imagine how baffling this design will be to people after the coins get worn in circulation.
