I wonder about the relevance of the image to the article. It is a creation that is more artwork than informative to the article. The size of the coins in the image is small and does not particularly add value to the article as an illustration. — billinghurst sDrewth 14:09, 22 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

-== Hawaii Quarter? ==
-The Hawaii quarter entry says "This is the first and only U.S. coin to feature royalty or a monarch of any kind." Why doesn't the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbian_Exposition_quarter_dollar Columbian Exposition quarter dollar] count as featuring a royalty or a monarch? It features Queen Isabella of Spain.
-[[Special:Contributions/205.167.170.18|205.167.170.18]] ([[User talk:205.167.170.18|talk]]) 14:13, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
-:The Columbian Exposition quarter was released only as a commemorative coin, and was never circulated. I suppose it the Hawaii quarter is not the first U.S. coin to feature royalty, but it is the first circulated coin that does so. [[User:Crohall|Crohall]] ([[User talk:Crohall|talk]]) 17:37, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
-:The Columbian Exposition quarter featured Queen Isabella, and for that matter the Hawaii commemorative half dollar also featured Kamehameha; but the Hawaii quarter is the first business-strike (non-commemorative) U.S. coin to feature a monarch.  The text has since been corrected to state it that way.  [[Special:Contributions/67.174.98.77|67.174.98.77]] ([[User talk:67.174.98.77|talk]]) 02:02, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
-== NPOV regarding Treasury's viewpoint ==
-There seems to be an anti-Treasury Department agenda in some of the text.  Examples included "In an attempt to derail the legislation", "Such studies are a time-honored device used in Washington to placate proponents of proposals while using the delay to kill them", "However, several Treasury staff who knew the conclusions Treasury sought were included".  I'll remove the most obvious instances, where there's a clear way to do so without removing information. [[User:Superm401|Superm401]] - [[User_talk:Superm401|Talk]] 17:06, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
-:The tone of the article is more like support in favor of the quarters and program, not necessarily "anti-Treasury". I've rewritten some sentences, but additional copy edits would help. - [[User:M0rphzone|M0rphzone]] ([[User talk:M0rphzone|talk]]) 01:10, 10 February 2013 (UTC)
-::It would appear that, according to reliable sources, there was substantial opposition from Treasury appointees as well as staff at the U.S. Mint. However that can be made evident, without prose. [[User:Group29|Group29]] ([[User talk:Group29|talk]]) 22:50, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
-==No, it isn't==
-I removed the incorrect claim that the Illinois quarter was the first coin to depict both Washington and Lincoln; it is actually in fact the 4th to do so (the 1991 Mt. Rushmore commemoratives all featured both Lincoln and Washington, plus Theodore Roosevelt and Jefferson besides).  The South Dakota quarter became the 5th to do so.  [[Special:Contributions/67.174.98.77|67.174.98.77]] ([[User talk:67.174.98.77|talk]]) 01:59, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
-:Since those coins were depicting Mt. Rushmore, they didn't depict Washington or Lincoln. They depicted ''a depiction'' of Washington and Lincoln (plus Theodore Roosevelt and Jefferson besides). <small>That's the signpost up ahead. Your next stop: The Technicality Zone.</small> [[User:Lost on belmont|Lost on <span style="background-color: blue; color: white"><strong> Belmont<sup> 3200N</sup></strong></span>]] ([[User_talk:Lost on belmont|talk]]) 02:15, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
-== Obverse? ==
-As of the State quarters through the America the Beautiful quarters, the law (or act or whatever brought about the mountain of new designs) states that the non-George side of the coin is the obverse, so that each state design, DC/territory, Parks design is the obverse and Washington is the reverse of the coin.  I am not that good with legal wording, but if someone would check that it may need to be corrected as all 3 articles list the Washington side as the obverse as if it were the pre-1999 series and that may be incorrect.
