[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1008732, member: 26030"]I love that coin. I am sure this will generate a lot of flaming ... but I always thought it was strange that the US completely obliterated the Indians (mass genocide), then broke treaty after treaty, shoving them onto desertlike "reservations" ... then honors them by putting their likeness on several of our coins ... I hate to say it ... but isn't it almost like having the nazi's put the face of jews on their coins (ok maybe that's a stretch) Now i will stand back and prepare to get blasted for this one (i appologize in advance) Still, didnt this country lay waste to the American Indian? I for one would like to see the US pay massive restitution to all American Indians (not that we can afford that (or anything) right now) In any case i still love the 2.5, 5, and 10 dollar indian gold and the indian head penny (there are probably a bunch of other indian coins, esp commemoratives)[/QUOTE]
