    Thanks. Agree about the hippie vibe. Almost expected a "Dancing Bear" reverse ( Grateful Dead reference).

    Think CAD really strips away the life from coin designs. No sense of motion, feeling etc--more cartoon like, to me.

    That said, Liberty isn't half bad, just her expression, as others mentioned seems apathetic. Hope that might be retouched before release--if adopted

    Personally I don't like it at all. She's an old hag. Arm is not extended with torch. Torch has very little flame. She looks tired and drained.
    Just my two bits.

    and will try to answer any questions you may have.

    Are the coins images generated by CAD?

    Two thumbs down from me on the OP designs -- and the others. Gawd, modern coin design is ugly. Were these designs created by AI? Good design shows some constraint. Every bit of the field of the coin doesn't and shouldn't be filled with some detail. Proper use of some white (blank) space is important. These designs look like they were designed by committee, where everyone's idea was included. As Bill the Cat would say, "ACK!"
