they were both nearly dead if not quite really most sincerely dead. --

We are now past the Last Great BBQ of the Summer Season, aka Labor Day,

They didn't even make 73 million NMI quarters.

There were actually 6 designs released in 2009. This is the only time
quarters were that diverse in a single year, at least since 1999, and
of course the design was near constant since 1932. Down to 2 designs
in 2021 (last of the America The Beautiful series with "Tuskegee
Airman" and then "Crossing the Delaware"), and back to the usual 5 for
the American Women series.
