Matt, & CoinsA-Z –

Hi, my name is Seth & I am a SJW! I am also gay & respect women’s rights and their historical right to vote since 1920 under the US Constitution.
Matt, you will love the US Mint’s 2020 Women’s Suffrage commemorative coins! Canada issued a $1 coin this year celebrating their centennial of the right of women to vote. Beautiful, historic coin for sure!

These are absolutely the most overtly feminist biased designed coins that I have ever seen.
I loathe ALL of them and if these replace the AE Silver Eagle well I can call my Eagle collection complete.

It’s pretty obvious the obama Administrations heavy hand never ceases eveb in our currency.
I pray the classic will not be replaced with this Gloria Steinem version.

Who decided to de-fang one our National symbols to have NO arrows in its quiver? Not a coincidence in our slide into Progressive policies of the last 15 years.

Hopefully this effeminate design dies quickly like jimmy carters the Susan B. Anthony disaster.

The best design is AEP-R-17 the Life, Liberty & Pursuit of Happiness. Classic design of strength & peace, art deco classic look.
Worst some girl reading a random book?!

Again, first noticed lack of arrows on the gold piece of the same and that shocked me but hey the dumbed down masses are clueless.

Coins reflect history & teach history they’re not a “safe space” for today’s Social Justice Warriors.

Well, i know that I logged in at noon, got one of each and was done- they arrive Tuesday. I’m not a big secondary seller, just a beginner collector (started in 2010) – i dont want to assume, but I would guess most have an account with the mint- seems like the best way to order.

Seth
You are so right. I don’t have any medals. But I do like this one a little. That is why I might get a graded one. I knew it was going to be bad at the Mint but this on here, I never thought it would have been what it has become. I guess we all have our gripes but man.

Hi Seth,

It’s nice to know that there is another individual who has a penchant for medals and an interest for sharing and learning about medals….that describes one of my main numismatic goals as well.

My first medal purchase was back in the mid to late 1980’s long, long, long before I ever purchased my first coin. Qualitatively and aesthetically, most medals are far superior to most coins as I see it but obviously to each their own.

Do you have favorite areas of medal collecting….i.e., by country, subject, period, sculptor, type, size, etc, etc?
