5 Ugliest State Quarters?

Here are my five:

What are yours? By the way, I actually like Wyoming's design, just don't like the flat reverse.

Minnesota has a duck which is larger than the fishing boat.
South Dakota shows a bird about the same size as Mount Rushmore.
And Idaho has a bird which dwarfs the entire state.

Here's an image gallery of all the State Quarters to jog everyone's memory.

They also have license plates with a buffalo on it which makes no sense at all. Perhaps the buffalo are hiding from me?; ▶ Reply to This

They are hiding on a reserve between Pittsburg and Arma. I don't have anything against the buffalo but ONLY a buffalo? Some are over packed and some are underpacked...; ▶ Reply to This

Yeah, I see where you're coming from. The reverse does have some tiny sunflowers though! :P; ▶ Reply to This

I'm glad you mentioned New Hampshire, because most people leave it off of their "worst list". It is my least favorite. It just looks like an unrecognizable blob. I hate it. I love the state motto though.; ▶ Reply to This

I like ALL State Quarters. In fact during Ms. Dona Pope's directorship of the U.S.Mint, all the coins were 'over priced' They are so much over priced that, in secondary market, you can obtain the same Mint products for 40 to 50% discount.

Many collectors, investors have left the field of coin coin collecting.

The affordable State Quarters have BROUGHT IN not only those who have left the field of coin collecting
but also Minllions of Collects all over the world into this wonderful hobby.

The State Qrs., are history books of U.S.A., The Prez. Dollars are also wonderful additions to this history books.

Believe me, Millions, all over the world collect them.

There is Citizen's Committee advising, the Mint, for new issues. You are requested to write to them and give your valuable suggestons to mint new designs and varieties.

Thanks
