<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ajbuckle, post: 295737, member: 8484&quot;]At one time, Lady Liberty appeared on the obverse of nearly every American coin.&nbsp; It makes sense that would be the case since America was founded on principals of liberty and freedom.&nbsp; In fact, we fought an entire revolutionary war in order to free ourselves from the tyranny of British colonial rule.&nbsp; Hence a nation which places the symbolic embodyment of liberty front and center on her nation&#039;s coinage.</p><p><br /></p><p>Today, US coins almost universally feature a politician on the obverse.&nbsp; Relating to this, I would like to bring in a quote:</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;The natural progress of things is for liberty to yield and government to gain ground.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>~ Thomas Jefferson</p><p><br /></p><p>I propose that Liberty be returned to her proper position on our coinage, and I sincerely hope that a change like that would also pay huge dividends in how Americans feel about issues of freedom and tyranny.</p><p><br /></p><p>Who is with me?&nbsp; How do we attempt to bring about such a change in US coinage?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
