New Items from the US Mint:
"United States Mint
Presidential Dollars - George Washington
The United States is honoring our Nation’s presidents by issuing $1 circulating coins featuring their images in the order that they served, beginning with Presidents Washington, Adams, Jefferson and Madison in 2007. The United States Mint will mint and issue four Presidential $1 Coins per year, and each will have a reverse design featuring a striking rendition of the Statue of Liberty. These coins will feature larger, more dramatic artwork, as well as edge-incused inscriptions of the year of minting or issuance, 'E Pluribus Unum,' 'In God We Trust' and the mint mark.
2007 Montana State Quarter
The Montana commemorative quarter dollar coin, released to the American public today, features images of a bison skull hovering in the sky over mountainous terrain. The Montana quarter is the 41st introduced by the United States Mint in its popular 50 State Quarters® Program. “Montana’s history recalls a state composed of vast landscapes, mountains and high plains, big sky and bison, all of which are represented on the Montana quarter we launch today,” said Director Moy. “The bison skull is an evocative image of the American West, its bounty and hardships, familiar to Montanans as a symbol of their own rugged and resilient nature."

I'm not sure if the U.S. Mint has changed designes in an ongoing set, ie Statehood Quarters, but I really wish they would do so with these President Dollars.
When I first saw the Washington Dollar, I was so dissapointed I couldn't even bear to examine it. It looks like a casino token. Having a "$" on the face of the dollar cheapens it. Without the usual words "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "E PLURIBUS UNUM, "IN GOD WE TRUST," "LIBERTY," not to even mention the date and mint mark, makes this coin look like play money.
The U.S. Mint has done it again. They had a good idea. Even a great idea. One that would finally get the public to embrace the dollar coin, and they blew it.
There's too much empty space on the face of these coins, and that means there's plenty of room to remove all the important information off the edge of the coin and put it where it belongs; and make this coin look like something worthy to represent the United States as real money.
