<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 5487104, member: 66&quot;]For the six I named the person shown on the coin was intended to BE that person, not a symbolic or allegorical representation.&nbsp; The image on the Olympic dollar was not intended to BE Nolan Ryan. (Did Nolan Ryan pitch on the 1992 Olympic team?&nbsp; No?&nbsp; Then it&#039;s not intended to be him.)&nbsp; He was quite possibly used as the model, but if we do that we also have to include the models for all the other coins that were issued while the models were still living. The draped bust coins, the Saint-Gaudens eagle and double eagle, the Morgan dollar, the Peace dollar, the Sac dollar, the standing Liberty quarter, and probably others.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
