“Regardless, it’s racial pandering at its finest”

And there’s nothing racist about being offended by that pandering.

Aren’t there more Asians in the world than other races? When will they get their coin?

I'm sure eventually they'll have a Tranny Lady Liberty.

Bruce Jenner on a coin?

I wish they would stop wasting money designing and making mould/plates or whatever for new coins or dollars. Sure some is needed to keep ahead of counterfeit but most of these designs seem just a waste of money.

Let's see if I have this straight. We are honoring African Americans with a new 1 oz gold coin. The price of an ounce of gold is about $1,200.

A typical American has less than $400 in savings.

So how will typical African Americans be able to hold and view such an expensive coin?

Oh that's right is is a Democratic Party program where feelings and compassion are more important that factual substance.

Sorry, I brought this up.

One more “Hope and Change” illusion that will not work or do a damn thing for the American people. Typical Obama

That coin is quad 9 (.9999) fine. They must be trying to compete with the Maple Leaf. I wonder what premium over spot it will have.

It’s a $100 coin but will be sold at a higher price due to the value of the gold content. At least this is the way it’s been with Gold Eagles. So if gold crashes to $50/ounce, your coin will still be worth $100.
