Jamie Franki’s gonna get famous for sure… second design for him on a US nickel. He designed the rear image of the bison on a coin released last year.

Solid work…

Now if Franki can get Norm on the front of a gold dollar…

Show me the Niner nickel:

B)

I can’t believe the national media got the school’s name right. Amazing.

I like what they’ve done with the new nickels, but I wonder why they haven’t had new designs for the other coins…they need to hurry up and get Reagan on something.

good work, I kinda like the front of last years nickel better though.

Reagan on something??? :huh: :o

I heard that a professor at NC State made an attempt to design a new nickel. It was rejected when they found out vending machines had trouble with 5 pennies taped together.

Nice work!!! :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Reagan on something would be great but what about Ric Flair…Wooooooooo!!!
