United States Commemorative Coins of 2017 are Boys Town and Lions Club

[WillieBoyd2]

The Father Flanagan Omaha Boys Town gets a clad half-dollar, a silver dollar, and a five-dollar gold piece and the Lions Club International gets a silver dollar.

The reverse design of the Lions Club coin looks interesting:

Any thoughts on these coins?

I sort of wish the original 1917 logo had been used, and the meaning of the letters in LIONS applied around the 1917 lion depiction: Liberty, Intelligence, Our Nations's Safety.

I like the Lions on the reverse. I won't be buying any of them, though.

Since I don't collect modern stuff what I think of them doesn't really matter.

[Zebo]

I like it, but also will not be buying.
