Just ran across this nice, simple, classy design, for a wonderful year.

Don't get to see coins like this very often!

    Looks so much better without all that lettering cluttering up the coin, kinda like one of these-

    My all time favorite U.S. coin design. I got to hold one in my hands thanks to a collector in Chicago.

    Very nice design. I always liked the no stars look.
