Got my first 2017 Washington in change today.

A few observations....

Frederick Douglass looks kind of like the painter Bob Ross.

The Obverse is very flat with very little detail.

If not for some chatter on Georges' cheek, it would have a shot at 69 or 70.

Oddly, I have found very little '17 coinage this year so far.

    Found numerous 2017 Lincolns. That's about it for new stuff.

    p.s. That's not a bad picture for a quick cell phone snap on my desk blotter. (LG G4 phone)

    I have only seen cents and dimes so far....
    @itsnotjustme... wasn't there a variety (DD or something) on the Effigy Mound quarters??
    Cheers, RickO

    yeah, I also remember something on that quarter? I remember the people/person that discovered it, found out it wasn't to be. Something along those lines? Some people made a quick order to the Mint and then regretted the order they just made. Remember?

    I was not aware... not spending that much time one coins these days. A quick search showed a partial collar error, and a suspected double die that another person called a worn die.
