Which female shown on U.S. coinage takes the wrinkle out of your robe?

jmwarren

I have a hard time finding any of the women on U.S. coinage "attractive". If you had to chose one to take home to mom, who would it be? I guess it would have to be the draped bust gal for me.

barney

What, not the type I SLQ?

wingedliberty

Eunice Shriver!!!, just kidding, Here are my top three.

1.The gymnist on the Olympic half dollar (nice spread!!!!!)
2.Nike, on the Olympic $5 gold.
3.Sacagawea. (only if she is over 18).

Do we have to limit it to just U.S. Coinage?

better

jmwarren

Yes, that is indeed better

What we have here is an example of VERY MODERN (big) bust coinage!

barney

you know you're "hard-up" when you get turned on by coins...hmm, is THAT why I collect? No, Morgan Medusa didn't turn me on; I just liked
the multi-hued eagle and the fancy colors on ol' Mama Liberty!

Susan B. Anthony. She makes my putter flutter.

Russ, NCNE

fcloud

NONE!

But the Walking Liberty half looks good.
With Winged Mercury next.

Hey the same guy designed both!

You're one sick puppy, Russ

I would go for Liberty on the French 100 Franc coin from 1954-1958, no question!

Russ

MrLee,

I like the stern headmistress type. You know, the ones that carry around a ruler and do a lot of spanking.

Personally, I think Janet Reno would look good on the Obverse of a coin.YES?

Are you saying a Janet Reno reverse would look good?

LanLord

I would agree with the young lady on the bust coinage. Incredibly stately looking, I'll bet she was a stunner.

jmwarren

yea, and that was before breast implants. I betcha she was impressive.

gemseeker

I always thought this coin was quite attractive. But I don't think the obverse really captures the image of the past first lady accurately enough.
my pick

There's gotta be a "tail" joke somewhere in here....

You can tell... for each denomination that she modelled, her cup size went up

Hey, Airplanenut, aren't you a minor?

stujoe

Ya beat me to it Gemseeker. I was going to post the Dolly Parton, errrr, I mean Madison.

I guess I will have to go with this instead.

I've tried hiring Susan B to come and do some ironing but she says she gave up the housework.. Help is so hard to get today...!

My # 1 choice is Mother Theresa.

Bear

Even a bear can fall in love with the gal
on the Standing Liberty Quarter.

KINCOIN

Not that Mother Theresa should be mentioned in this thread. She should be on a US coin of some denomination after all that she has done.You think?

I'm kind of partial to this one. . .Link. . . Seems high maintenance though!

StuJoe - I have one of the coins in Proof condition. She lived during the Naploeonic era and I read that some women were almost considered topless with the dresses that had back then. As for Dolly Parton, if she were on a coin, I think she would take up most of the overall surface of it. As for the pic on your message post, it keeps reminding me of the wicked witch of the east from Oz.

nucklehead

Agflyer, killer coin! Should be filed under 'Major drool coins'.

goyankeez

The woman depicted on the $20 St. Gaudens.

That's a nice looking robe.

MrLee

Nuck, I think you're just the guy to ruffle her feathers.

Hello! Guys! Have any of you gone away from your computers lately? Or NOT looked at coins for more than 1 day? When you start deciding whether an ugly or old woman on a coin is attractive or not, feww....it sounds like it's time for a break from coins and off to spend time with the wife or on the beach! LOL

JoyofCollecting

I forget who the member was that a while back dropped his slab in the bathtub while taking a bath.....whoever he was......I think he should get the deciding vote on this issue. It would be interesting to know who the lady, man or animal was on that coin.

Tade

Most attractive? Go North to Canada and feast your eyes on the richest woman in the world. What's more attractive than $$$$$?

nwcs

Peace dollar gal for me.

BillJones

Gee NWCS! It's good thing designer Anthony De Francusci isn't around any more. That's his wife! Look, but don't touch!! LOL

I've aways liked the Draped Bust coinage, especially on the dime for some reason. Long hair turns me on. Check out nearly 200 year old "babe" in the attached pictures.
