Now I know why, as a numismatist for many years, I’ve steered clear of any non-circulating coins our illustrious government has foisted on the unknowing public.

Good, should help lower the price of sparkplugs eventually when they finally dump these on industry.

White men are now represented as white women. In many cases, particularly in the Northeast and CA, it’s fairly apt.

There are no Asian men, Indian (as in the country of India) men or women, or Arab men or women on the coin either.
In other words, who cares? Is this what's worth getting offended over these days? Sheesh.

The bottom guy/gal has a semi-Adam's Apple, a slight swelling, indicating he/she is sort of a guy.
Oh, wait, isn't the term Adam's Apple religious? There must be a PC word for it.

Call it the “corrected dollar”: adjust for inflation, fiat, and other distortions, and you’d find 1oz platinum is ~$100.

Waiting for the Hispanics to start complaining because they’re not on it. I’m so sick of this crap. Why don’t they just make it illegal to be a white male, and get it over with? I’m not even male, and it irks me to no end.

If I were designing a coin, I’d put an Apollo astronaut or two on it. That was our greatest achievement.I would have Orville & Wilbur Wright and Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on it.
From first powered flight to moon landing in 63 years, less than the span of a man's life.

with some sunglasses and chinwhiskers, the bottom one could easily be Mr. Lebowski aka “The Dude”.

Hmm, my math needs work, it was 66 years not 63.

Well, the actual term is laryngeal prominence. It's a mystery why it hasn't caught on... :-)
