LaWanda Page was a friend of Redd Fox from childhood. She was a stand-up comic, just as he was. He real life persona was entirely different than Aunt Esther, though...............Still, she was a talented and funny comedienne and actress.............

Grace Hopper wasn’t a president, but neither was Benjamin Franklin.
So i say we put Margret Thatcher on the 20 dollar bill, just to spite the libs.

I think a better bet would be to mint specie coins as currency accurately reflecting those metals market value.
Currently, Canada makes a very pure Maple Leaf gold coin, with a laser hologram engraved in it, sold in a sealed container. The US could do the same, but with the coins value greater than the metal market value.
That is, gold is currently around $1300 an ounce. So if the US made a one ounce gold coin, it should have a face value of $5000, for example.
Silver is around $20 an ounce, so an almost pure US silver ounce coin could have a nominal value of $500.
A one ounce copper coin might be $100.
The trick would be in the laser hologram engraving, and that each coin might be numbered and associated with an individual owner.

Edith Wilson?......................What US Paper Money is Edith's portrait on?!?

[ Benjamin Hart wanted to shoot the remaining hostages, but she insisted on hanging them. ]
She certainly sounds awesome! I think she was really pissed off that they invaded her home and endangered her family. Never Mess with a Momma Grizzly bear!
I think Nancy Hart was the Original Mamma Grizzly!

I see what you did there!
We would have to add Elanor Rosevelt on there too as towards the end FDR wasn’t all that there and some speculate she ran a lot of things too...

Replace the 1925 standing Liberty with a 1917 type 1 Quarter. :)
