1 & 6 look most like her. The rest are not good representations in my opinion.

The reverses leave a lot to be desired overall. Maybe 6 as a better remembrance of her contribution.

    They left off her interest in astrology and the occult.

    She chose the obverse, the reverses all lack IMHO. Say what you want about the Reagans - but Nancy said no to putting Ronald Reagan on the dime.

    I vote no on all of the reverses, although 1 and 5 are the best.

    She should be the official vote.

    anymore
    these design concepts mean very little when they create dies in almost flat relief
    yeah these drawings look nice and all
    just wait until those dies are finished and turn out "chuck e cheese" token looking versions

    most likely
    the ugliest drawing will work best with the finished dies

    1 or 11 look most like her

    Who are the rest of them?

    And the computer aided imaging on some of them. omg. e.g. #1, helmet hair from max headroom and a photo-realistic face will make for a strange looking coin. are we choosing art for coin designs or choosing which photo to morph? The art provided for choosing a candidate should be as close to how it will look as a coin, and not how the photo was changed into a 2-D representation of a 3-D computer model.



    the only reverse I like is 6

    the last one... that kid looks uncomfortable... as if he's being hugged by Joe Biden...

    I can't believe they would do a "NO" coin
