<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jackhd, post: 2383589, member: 73897&quot;]I&#039;m all for preserving all of the cultures that make up our country. The depiction of the &quot;Latina Folklorico dancer&quot; on the dollar coin sort of turned me away. First, they did a really poor job of her representation. I&#039;ve seen real Latin dancers and they are almost always beautiful. The dancer on this coin actually looks kind of masculine to me. Secondly, even if the mission of the National Parks service does specifically include preserving Latin culture, this appears blatantly political to my eyes. It doesn&#039;t present the &quot;multi-cultural experience&quot; as claimed by the Parks Service. It only represents one, single cultural experience - that of the Latin Folklorico dancer. Not trying to be nasty here. I don&#039;t like the coin and $45 for less than an ounce of silver is STOOOPID! Jack[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
