Default Frosting?

FWIW, here's a comparison with the obverse of a CAM 1999 quarter and one of
the 2010 ATB quarters. You can hardly make out the details on the reverse


I can definitely can see why you're so upset about this. Why, it's now
slightly more difficult to make out the individual strands of George
Washington's spaghetti hair. No wonder you emphasized "way" with
asterisks when you said that the Mint went way overboard. I think I
would have used both asterisks and capitals. Maybe even an exclamation
point too. Like this! I know, some might say that this differing
treatment is the kind of variety that creates visual interest. But I
agree with you. The Mint went *way* overboard. In an open forum like
this, you have every right to use those asterisks. Don't let anybody
poke fun of you for this.
