I liked the old one better - the new Lincoln image looks somehow odd, doesn't really resemble the "original". The one in the old plate looked more Lincoln-like to me.
The best is Angela's license plate...(maybe she'll share a photo).

The new Maryland license plates are extremely cool

Eva, I totally agree - the old one was better!
Haha, and yes again, I'd be happy to share my license plate...even though ours are not so pretty ;-)

Wow! Angela, how did you get that plate?

Believe or not, Roger, but in Germany it's not very much asked for...
;-)
I had the choice between this or AL272 and AL1202 and...many more!
If you plan to get a new license plate, there is a DMV website where you can check which letter/number combinations are free and can reserve them for up to 2 weeks until you have made up your mind.
But to be fair - you can't possibly get a cooler license plate than this:

Agreed!
(Back in the days when we lived in Illinois I had "Cubs" in my license plate.)

See why I had no difficulties finding Angela's home when I visited...

Actually I like the new one. It's easier to see the image of Lincoln because it's larger.
