    Their national symbol is a well armed hot chick with an attack lion.
    I wouldn't mess with her.

    Lady liberty has a torch & Marianne (France) has a pet chicken.

    I'm guessing your coins are safe.
    Anyone who can bath a 100 lb cat and not end up gutted is badass also.

    Yes or no, depending on semantics.

    The Olympics silver dollar (1992 or 1996, not sure) showed headless statue figures of a nude male and female figure. Actual unnamed Olympians were the models.

    Yes actually but more nuanced so far as the design goes...(on this coin)
    I'm thinking Britannia is not in a defensive posture so much as she is identifying herself by raising the standard/colors.
    The lion doesn't realize this and is alert because of the raised shield.
    I like how she has has a confident relaxed posture with the trident at the ready.
    It's a small golden work of art as far as I'm concerned.
