The new 2017 Lady Liberty. Say what?

[Kurios1]

Why get rid of a perfectly spendable dollar?!?

I believe it's the principal of the matter. They, the bankers and corrupt politicians, stole our REAL money-silver & gold, and have been giving us this tin crap garbage in return and even with hideous designs as an additional slap in the face. I probably won't be tossing these coins in the trash but, I sure as heck don't give them ANY esteem either. It's your prerogative to agree or not with my opinion. I think we still have that much freedom in America today.

That is part of what makes America great, freedom of speech and freedom of choice.

freedom of choice. Gotta luv it. Thats why I choose to give those corupt bankers and politicans the cheap rotten clad that I dig up, and turn it back to silver. 2 rolls for I bar with change leftover. Used the same analogy in another thread today. Begone ugly coins and rotten clad hello genuine silver. Dont even care whats on the bars just give me the best deal. Mix in the really badly corroded clad and really stick it to the man.

That's what I do too. At the end of the year, I total up my clad and buy junk silver coins with that amount. Its the principle of the thing.

If they want to put a zombie on it I'm cool with that.

Check out the Zombucks copper and silver bullion coins.

I agree about this gold coin being damnable ugly. It is giving the hideous Susan B. Anthony dollar a run for the money as most grotesque US coin ever minted. I've recovered a few Susan B. Anthony dollar coins and I was almost temped to throw it into my trash pouch. Yuck !View attachment 1455534

Yeah who wants to see Aunt B on a coin

Here is a quote from the usmint... If we’re going to keep on depicting liberty as a woman, she ought to reflect the appearance of America’s actual women, not the tired, racist beauty standard embraced by our Founding Fathers.

So now the "old" Lady Liberty is a tired racist. Don't mind that cheap crackhead ghetto looking chickenhead on the new coin. That's the new normal everyday woman of America, and IT'S GORGEOUS! Ask them, they'll tell you. lol. Talk at ya later, I gotta go puke now...
A new commemorative coin depicts Lady Liberty as a black woman, and it?s gorgeous.

why do people care so much honestly, it's a commemorative $100 piece aka it's collector's edition only. it's literally not even spendable, so it won't be on your bill or coin.

That's not what they're saying. Then call me a Traditionalist.

"It would be easy to dismiss the coin as meaningless: The U.S. Mint’s insistence on representing freedom with a fictional “lady” is anachronistic at best and troubling at worst, and commemorative coins aren’t exactly the beating heart of popular culture. Even so, the new Lady Liberty coin feels like an enormous symbolic step, somehow both urgent and long overdue.

It literally IS spendable. It says $100 on it and it was produced by the U.S. Mint.

When's the Caucasian MLK commemorative one ounce silver coming out again?

the "Founding Fathers." were closer to knowing what Lady Liberty Looked like
after France gave the U.S. the Statue of Liberty in 1886.
They created it from what Liberty should look like.
The Statue of Liberty is a robed female figure representing Libertas, the Roman goddess. https://www.google.com/search?q=Lib...Nj5TUAhVDzSYKHVxzDKUQ_AUICigB&biw=836&bih=533
Not a Human Being of Any particular Race.



although I've seen uglier Depictions on Coins. imo This $100.00 Coin is the most Racist thing they pulled off so Far.
Changing a Roman Goddess to a depiction of a black woman.

1000 years from now.
will they be allowed to depict oprah as a white Tranny ?

That's the last I'll say on it
