Balanced, representative of the Marianas, and designed according to their wish to honor their heritage. What’s the beef?The seaweed was a bit of a stretch, but still…
Ratings:This design could have been well done, but no. What is going on with the seaweed along the bottom? Pray for the guys in the boat that they aren’t eaten by that giant bird. This looks like a scene out of a B-movie. On the plus side at least people will know that the Northern Mariana Islands exist even if they think Squidward lives there.
Ratings:In this case the U.S. Mint has done it again for it’s long running States Quarter series. Why?
