He would have to be deceased, and with a supportive Democratic president and Democratic Congress. So thank God we won’t have the Obama penny anytime soon.

What cultural icon associates that face with “Liberty”?
Most people, even familiar with such iconography, will look at her and say “who’s that?”

Reminds me of an old SNL skit about a certain South African coin.
People who remember when it was funny will know EXACTLY what I am talking about.

" Agreed. Stars too big for this denomination But probably will show up nicely on the 1/4 and 1/10 ounce coins." Those coins will feature her fatherless kids. They will be libertine coins.

Most Hispanics are a mixture of European and American Indian. Ricky Martin is entirely European in appearance, but many others show little to no European heritage. Genetically, they are not a separate race.
