I looked at the other designs and while I hate that they changed them because of the facist attempt to rewrite history most of them aren't bad. The dime is particularly good, it's a modern version of the liberty cap design that was on a lot of US coinage in the last 18th and early 19th century. I think it's interesting they chose to remove two of the most popular DEMCORATIC presidents of the 20th century though, FDR and JFK. Their pettiness knows no bounds.
