I have been long unhappy with the gold quarter-nobles that we have been offering. The coins are heavy and thick and they are not well rendered. I've got a photograph of the new dies that we'll be using for the 2009 strikes. It's not the coin itself, but I believe that the quality of the coin will be able to be guessed at by the quality of the die faces.

I am thinking of these being offered in brass and in gold-plated brass.
