Actually nailed might be more appropriate with the square hole that indicates the coin was holed early in it's lifetime. Sheldon S-242, very common variety but also very cool with a killer reverse cud.

It's a strong possibility that it may be used on the Thomas Jefferson First Spouse coin. Since Jefferson was a widower when he was in office they will be using a representation of Liberty as she appeared on coins issued during his administration. That would be either the draped bust, or the turban head that was used on the gold coins. I think the draped bust is much more attractive, so natually they will pick the turban head because it was used on the gold eagles back then.
