Lady Liberty will be depicted as a black women on a coin -- the first time in the nation’s history Lady Liberty has not been a white woman -- the U.S. Treasury Department announced on Thursday.
The coin, worth about $100 face value, is part of a commemorative series to honor the 225th anniversary of the U.S. Mint.
“The 2017 American Liberty 225th Anniversary Gold Coin is the first in a series of 24-karat gold coins that will feature designs which depict an allegorical Liberty in a variety of contemporary forms-including designs representing Asian-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, and Indian-Americans among others-to reflect the cultural and ethnic diversity of the United States,” the U.S. Treasury Department said in a statement.
The coin is part of a year-long celebration by the U.S. Treasury to celebrate the mint, and the theme will be “Remembering our Past, Embracing the Future.”
Several women have been featured on U.S. coins in the past. Susan B. Anthony was featured on the U.S. silver dollar from 1976 until 1981, and Helen Keller is on the Alabama state quarter. Sacagawea is featured on the $1 gold coins.
The new Lady Liberty coins will be available for sale in April.
I don’t care either way, but the French might have an opinion. It was a Frenchman who designed the Statue of Liberty, and if I’m not mistaken, fashioned it after his mother-in-law.
The cynic in me says this is an appropriation of white culture.
Lady Liberty is a white european idea and concept. Depicted not as anything other than some form of white female figure. Going back to the foundational law structures of the great ancient histories of Greece and Rome.
Second, this design is obvious to give Mooch a coin of her own while saying its a black lady liberty.
I heard the mother in law actually inspired the pose. So often she was chasing after the guy, usually holding a sack of flour and threatening him with a rolling pin.
He thought he had to somehow immortalize it.
Erasing Western Civilization one coin at a time.
100% fine with it. She looks fierce, just as she should. As if personifications of abstract ideas can only be associated with certain races...
Works for me! I may get one. It’s actually beautiful.
Will be a rare, valuable piece in the future: not that many wealthy black numismatists around to buy many of these.
I think Obama in his racial obsession probably wanted to unnerve whites and feed black nationalism but I think things like this might have the opposite effect.
Ah yes, representing the cradle of Liberty, Africa.
And it'd fitting that the denomination preferred by drug dealers is the $100 bill' The new coin Probably weights less than the paper equivalent, and will be infinitely easier to hide.
Win-win all around. I am sorry for the typo. There is no White European American coin?

Only an idiot would purchase one. Obviously not intended for circulation. But even $650 from a fence will buy some self employed recycler a lot of crack.
Can someone post a photoshoped gold version of this?
Entrepeneurship by a very traditional subclass which has been making the conversion for generations.
That's the year the original complete Constitution with Bill of Rights was finalized, but not yet completely ratified.
In 1792 George Washington was being elected to his second term.
According to the US Mint’s website...
1792 was used because that is the year the US Mint (in Philadelphia) was established.
“The U.S. Mint is celebrating its 225th anniversary
by minting a commemorative coin which depicts
Lady Liberty as an African American.”
BIGOTRY I say. Lady Liberty as black woman?

The mint has been doing some interesting things the past year or so with commemoratives. I like what they did with the "centennial" series. They took some old designs and minted them in gold. The following are the three Centennial issues so far. In the images below they are all the same size, but they are actually roughly dime (1/10th ounce), quarter (1/4 ounce), and half-dollar(one half ounce) sized.

Obviously, these are more of interest to numismatic collectors and such, as they sell at a considerable premium to the actual gold content. I thought it was a cool idea. They were all excellent designs. I don't know if they'll do a 'dollar' coin, but if they do, I hope it's a reproduction of the Morgan.
So the eagle side will be considered “Heads”.
Now, the current Black political alliance with atheism, homosexuality, abortion, evolution, etc., is a completely different issue!
