That's not Liberty, that's Venus and Cupid in "Love Conquers All".

<< <i>image of liberty? >>



yes, liberty on the coin.

the engraver, copied it almost exactly. of course he added LIBERTY to the ?tiara?.

i never knew this until i read a few articles today about the design.
i am wondering how many others did not know?
