For the first time ever, there will be a black Lady Liberty on a coin

its expensive isn’t it?

[Genoa]

Lady Liberty is something that it’s harder to politicize. She’s purely symbolic. (Although now we seem to be pushing the envelope.) Using real people means we have to tussle over Harriet Tubman, Susan B. Anthony, or how soon we will see a regular issue Reagan dollar.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Is she cisgender? Then it’s heteronormative.

[fortheDeclaration]

Unattractive woman.

[PROCON]

Will the libs demand it only be worth 3/5th of it’s face value due to slavery?

[BenLurkin]

I stand corrected.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Yes, she does look thoughtful. I like to imagine this is how American hero Harriet Tubman looked in her younger days.

[Genoa]

Britannia? She a white woman??

[BenLurkin]

Yup

And far better looking than Vienna Symphony bullion coins.

[digger48]

What’s next a cross-dressing gay man? A sumo wrestler?

Moochelle will have her own coin soon enough

When I was growing up, my parents had a paperback novel called One Hundred Dollar Misunderstanding.

From Amazon: "A college sophomore spends a weekend with a pretty 14-year-old black prostitute under the manly misapprehension that she has invited him because she finds him irrresistable. Outraged when her guest resists payment, Kitten steals her rightful $100 fee, and the hijinks begins."

Hopefully, they’ll make her look like a gray (alien abductor) next.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

They’ve already done Gen. Wesley Clark, I believe. Could be wrong.

[BenLurkin]

Yup. If kept in mint condition

But something tells me this will have a huge production run for just that reason.

[Steely Tom]

Looks like they modeled her expression on that of Marilyn Mosby in full prosecutorial mode.

[chopperman]

It’s being falsely advertised. You cannot get one of those for only 100 dollars.

[SandRat]

and Obama Diversity Inclusiveness strikes again.

[Vendome]

My snarky post aside, that is actually beautiful.

[montag813]

OMG....She has BITCHY RESTING FACE (BRF) just like Moochelle! #EpicFail. Trump needs to can this

[SkyDancer]

The vault will fill up with these things that people won’t want or can’t afford.

[Genoa]

One ounce gold coins cost you about $1500. The U.S. Mint will be happy to assist you.
