Default Coin Perspective

With all of the new SH quarter designs coming out, it's interesting to hear how
different folks "see" the different designs on the coins. From Day 1, I thought
the Missouri quarter was an image of two huge fish about to consume the L&C
crew.
And those funky colorized versions make it worse - the fish (supposed to be
trees on the banks of the MS, or so I've been told) are green and gold and look
a lot like large-mouth bass.

Is it just me, or does anyone else see this? Any other oddities seen in the
other designs?

Maybe we'll find Waldo on the Montana quarter...

When Georgia came out, my supervisor said the reverse looked like a horse's
rear end. Since then, that is what I see.
