I really like the ones where a dirty quarter was used and you can still see the details on the reverse. You still retain the history of the quarter and make it identifiable for what it is. Perhaps only clean the side of the quarter where the design is being rolled onto. Keep the reverse "dirty." That way both sides are interesting to look at.
