    I always thought the SBA blanks were among the most attractive...

    @happycollecting I've known of that indent for 15 years, but it isn't mine just on my eBay watch list.

    More like a "massive collar indent".

    The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

    If you say 20 years later, I say 10 years after!

    I see... It surely is an interesting and well-positioned indent. No wonder you still have a good feeling about it after 15 years. :)

    pity the poor Ms. Anthony, to be so sharply criticized by one that should be grateful for what the Suffragette's sacrifices have helped attain. we should remember that she was a Quaker and held fast to her beliefs which are very simple. to be honest, as an older woman she reminds me of my Great Grandmother.

    Thanks,
    Finally some appreciation for SBA, and the short lived design.
    I for one love them...

    She (SBA$) came out when Jimmy Carter was President.
    40 years later and just the other day, my wife received one ('79 ) in change ( as a quarter).
    Thought to myself : " I wish more clerks would do that :joy: ".

    As a series.... they're easy to do.
    And as attractive goes.... feel free to send me or show me the errors.

    the coin was despised from the start, remember when it was called a Carter Quarter?? it's comparable to the Twenty Cent Piece in that regard, close enough in size to be confusing and not readily accepted by the populace. as for the design, contemporary citizens didn't really like the Morgan Dollar, but so what, a small group of influential Politicians did even before they knew what it would look like!!
