Still good? Yeah, they're a foundational text in mathematics. There are some really beautiful illustrated versions of Elements out there.

I'd suggest Byrne's Euclid -- it's a really nice edition and a good coffee-table book. Alternatively, Henry Segerman makes some beautiful mathematical sculpture, much of which is within your budget.
