Is that an actual mint pattern? He's used that astronaut a few times on his own work, many of which are better looking.

To me, if it's for collectors only they should go with a bit deeper relief, and more detail.

Oddly, I was just reading how the presidential dollars haven't been made for circulation for while since the early ones were still sitting in vaults unused.
